What type of punctuation mark is used to jon independent clauses seperated by a coordinating conjuction?

A comma.\n\nExample:\n\n(The tribe attacked savagly), and (we ran) \n\n*the parentacies denote where each independent clause is.

British punctuation has always been like that.  When did Americans start putting punctuation inside quotations when the punctuation doesn't belong to the quotation?  That's always seemed weird to me!

In your first sentence, "posts" should not have an apostrophe because it is not a contraction and is not showing possession.  \n\nYou have proven your own point.

Sentence B has the restrictive clause. Restrictive clauses are NOT usually set off by commas, and non-restrictive clauses are usually set off by commas. When speaking, one often pauses a bit before a non-restrictive clause, but not before a restrictive one.

Looks fine to me. I don't think you need the comma- no, you don't need the comma when you use the subjunctive in that way, or it's incorrect. Make a tree of the sentence or put parenthesis around your phrases or something and you'll see what I mean. Just write it as, 'What you are saying is true for all that that "that" that that "that" refers to is correct.'\n\nNot sure whether it's the maximum, though, but I'll think about it.

Period, comma, colon, semicolon, dash, hyphen, apostrophe, question mark, exclamation point, quotation marks, brackets, parenthesis, braces, and ellipses.

It is a noun or pronoun which renames another noun or pronoun immediately preceding it.\n\nA nonessential appositive (you don't need it for the sentence to make sense) should be set off by commas.\n\nExample: My favorite class, English, is always fun!\n\nIn this example English (a noun) renames my favorite class (another noun).

There are not really "grammar rules" about this, because native speakers don't do it the other way.\n\nHowever, as a linguist, here's how I would analyze this sentence:\n\nI heard [him sing a song].\n\nThe bracketed part of this sentence is kind of like a nonfinite clause.  The subject of this clause is "him", and the verb of this clause is "sing".  Because it's a nonfinite clause, the verb does not need to be conjugated, so it appears in its basic form, "sing".\n\n(By the way, the reason it's "I heard him sing a song" and not "I heard he sing a song" is called Exceptional Case Marking.  Depending on how into linguistics you are, you might want to take a syntax class if you really like stuff like this!)

Punctuation is not a pre-writing technique.  That can be refined during editing or your second draft.\n\nIt looks like the final think you listed was cut off  "ve.." so I can't comment on that one.\n\nHope that helps.  Good luck!

It actually does not need any commas.\nYou could put one after "spot," but that depends on whether the emphasis in the sentence is on the parking spot or the Mercedes.

connectives???\n\ndo you mean conjunctions??\n\nwell...................\n\n\nA BRIEF EXPLANATION OF CONJUNCTIONS \nA conjunction is a word that links words, phrases, or clauses. There are three types of conjunctions: coordinating conjunctions, correlative conjunctions, and subordinating conjunctions. Coordinating conjunctions may join single words, or they may join groups of words, but they must always join similar elements: e.g. subject+subject, verb phrase+verb phrase, sentence+sentence. When a coordinating conjunction is used to join elements, the element becomes a compound element. Correlative conjunctions also connect sentence elements of the same kind: however, unlike coordinating conjunctions, correlative conjunctions are always used in pairs. Subordinating conjunctions, the largest class of conjunctions, connect subordinate clauses to a main clause. These conjunctions are adverbs used as conjunctions. \n\nThe following tables show examples of the various types of conjunctions and some sample sentences using the conjunctions. Since coordinating conjunctions and correlative conjunctions are closed sets of words, all are included in the list. Subordinating conjunctions are a larger class of words; therefore, only a few of the more common ones are included in this list. \n\nCOORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS \n  \nF    A    N    B    O  Y   S \nfor and nor but or  yet so \n\n\nAn easy way to remember these six conjunctions is to think of the word FANBOYS. Each of the letters in this somewhat unlikely word is the first letter of one of the coordinating conjunctions. Remember, when using a conjunction to join two sentences, use a comma before the conjunction. \n\nEXAMPLES AND SENTENCES \nCOORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS \n  \nCONJUNCTION+WHATS LINKED+SAMPLE SENTENCES \n\nand+noun phrase&noun phrase\nWe have tickets for the symphony and the opera. \n\nbut+sentence&sentence\nThe orchestra rehearses on Tuesday, but the chorus rehearses on Wednesday. \n\nor+verb&verb \nHave you seen or heard the opera by Scott Joplin? \n\nso+sentence&sentence\nI wanted to sit in the front of the balcony, so I ordered my tickets early. \n\n \n\n  \n\n \nCORRELATIVE CONJUNCTIONS \n  \nboth... and not only... but also either... or neither... nor whether... or........ \n\n\nRemember, correlative conjunctions are always used in pairs. They join similar elements.When joining singular and plural subjects, the subject closest to the verb determines whether the verb is singular or plural. \n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nEXAMPLES AND SENTENCES \nCORRELATIVE CONJUNCTIONS \n  \nCONJUNCTIONS+WHAT IS LINKED+SAMPLE SENTENCE \nboth... and         subject&subject \nBoth my sister and my brother play the piano. \n\neither... or          noun&noun \nTonight's program is either Mozart or Beethoven. \n\nneither...nor       subject+subject \nNeither the orchestra nor the chorus was able to overcome the terrible acoustics in the church \n\nnot only...but also           sentence+sentence \nNot only does Sue raise money for the symphony, but she also ushers at all of their concerts. \n\n \n \nSUBORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS \n  \nTIME    CAUSE + EFFECT    OPPOSITION    CONDITION \nafter            because                  although             if \nbefore           since                    though             unless \nwhen             now that              even though       only if \nwhile               as                     whereas           whether or not \nsince           in order that            while                even if \nuntil                 so                                             in case (that) \n\n\nSubordinating conjunctions, (subordinators) are most important in creating subordinating clauses. These adverbs that act like conjunctions are placed at the front of the clause. The adverbial clause can come either before or after the main clause. Subordinators are usually a single word, but there are also a number o

You need to phrase your question in the form of an independent clause.

Your sentence doesn't make a great deal of sense because you can't have a question mark in the middle of a sentence.\n\nI'd go with two words:  thank you.
