this --> ?

Where has the question mark gone? Why does it rarely appear at the end of questions that I see here in thread titles and in comments?

Honestly. It detracts from the purpose of the words present to have to reread questions several times because writers either use a period at the end of a sentence that is a question or they leave nothing at all


I realize it might be asking too much but I would welcome the return of "?" at the end of sentences or phrases that are actually questions, asking for a response.

Asking for a friend.
