While working on a project with my friend, I noticed that he uses one space after a sentence. Does anyone use two? I know I do.

I notice a lot of people do that as well, but I always use two spaces.

They use to teach us to use two spaces after ending a sentence, but they've sort of stopped on that.

Seems like both ways are accepted. I always thought you were supposed to do two after a period...that's how I always do it, aside from ellipses.

I always use two spaces after a period. It just visually sets the end of the sentence apart from the words inside the sentence for me.

Unfortunately, it only seems to show up when you're typing the post out... Not where everyone else sees it for some reason.

HTML has this wonderful little thing about cutting any set of more than one space down to just a single space, which means when typing forum posts and writing websites an extra space after the period is redundant and can even waste time depending on how much you're writing.

Helping spread my friend's MyMiniCity around. =)

Convincing people it isn't evil spyware is fun.

If anybody wanted to help the population size of the city? http://charmyland.myminicity.com/
Or you can help current "residents" stop living on welfare by helping the industry: http://charmyland.myminicity.com/ind

I just figured out how to do a thing on my forums that H3F does. It's actually pretty simple, but I found it cool. I have a Category for announced montages / videos and whenever I want one to be announced, all I have to do is edit one of the 3 forums and change the link. (The forum must first be a web link.) So, I have the title and description on there and all you have to do is click the link to download.

Unlike H3F, I have no ads or pages that you have to go through with many ads.

I heard about that, I thought that was just a rumor though.

I figured out what to do next in Source SDK. I'm going to make Foundry for Garry's Mod.
