Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

There is no space between the last letter of a sentence and punctuation.
There is also a space after an ellipsis... like this.
Not...like this.
I don't care if everyone does it wrong, it's both harder to read (less functional) and it flies against normal punctuation conventions.
Also, don't get your punctuation inspiration from Japanese games. An ellipsis is three periods, no more. Exclamation mark always goes after question mark. ("?!" = correct) Japan adopted our punctuation marks and did it their way. If you're writing in English, do it the English-language way.
