    I was told by a writing teacher once that if you use an exclamation mark more than once in a page, you've abused it.

    If a charcter is shouting, use narrative to describe and show it. No caps please, it's annoying and unprofessional looking.

    But I think I'm just echoing everybody else now so...meep:redface:
