You're really starting to abuse the exclamation point.


I tweaked the title to remove the exclamation point and be less "misleading". But Jay you've been here a long time and while I don't notice myself doing it, many have pointed out I tend to use exclamation points a lot.

I do try and control how many I use, however it to has become one of my signature marks. People see the three paragraph response with a couple exclamation marks and they go, "Hey its JoelCool7". Since I really don't get much flack over the exclamation mark and the fact that many enjoy my larger more in depth posts and writing style. I have embraced both.

I didn't start doing these things to stand out or market myself. But people have come to expect them and they have made an image that I live up too.

Each notable user has tell tale signatures that go with his posts. A calling card so to speak enabling people to identify that user fairly easily. Example if I discontinued my account tomorrow and opened a new one within a year. People would be able to identify me right aways, in fact go online and search for me and you'll note that this is my writing style and calling card.

Why change what defines me? As long as it doesn't lead to overwhelming negative consequences!
