Actually, I've found that it's the new leet (1337FTW=gay) thing to do if you put question marks randomly in sentences. For instance, 1)Ul)3 71-l47????? WTF DEN DA 1-I057 15 leik gay. Also, some people tend to just put them in because they think they look cool or are mistaking them for exclamation points, or sometimes they are just too incapable of hitting enter and somehow manage to instead get an query mark in there. Or they are overzealous with the shift key and forget they're holding it down and, intending to put in a / mark, they instead get a question mark but don't look at the screen when typing so they miss it.
I would like to not start next to the f*cking bear every time.
Ghan has said he has fixed this. Monovertex please confirm this fix. This was only a problem with people that had signatures in the upper levels like not the special members but the respected members.
