I would guess none...

Because you're asking a question.

Once again logic prevails... honestly siggy, why did you have to chime in so fast? We could have had a 17 page flamefest! *sighs*

Now, with exclamation points I belive the limit is 5. Otherwise you're just being a douche. Or maybe you're doing a subtle satire of the absurdity of multiple punctuation. After all, it just ends the sentence... so any more than one just means that you're insecure about the finality of your argument.

Or you're just stupid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Feh, ones are old and busted. Eleven is teh new hotness!!!11!1eleven

Though, to answer your question, it's an hyperbolic parody of the online-gamer's-inability-to-type-properly-in-the-heat-of-battle-or-maybe-they-just-suck-at-typing-in-general phenomenon. As for etiquette, use in moderation (as with most things), and place where mocking emphasis is required.

When you really need an answer and you dont get it - you used too few Question Marks.

When you get a whole lot of answers you didnt bargan for - you used too many Question Marks.
