You need some sort of preposition after "always."

The period should have been outside of the quotation marks because you are only quoting the phrase "always" rather than it being a complete sentence.

Periods always go inside the quotation marks.

False.
That is for sentences, not out of context phrases. I have a grammar book about it somewhere.

A Google search revealed multiple sources telling me otherwise. However, perhaps your book is Canadian, because apparently they sometimes place periods outside of quotation marks up there.

Except for the people who speak french, period is translated to the word "point".

ElGato's post has no subject, object, nor any other word other than the verb he so loquaciously posted. Therefore it was not a sentence and does not require a period.

You should also have "sigged" in quotation marks as you are making a reference to a specific passage. "Sigged" is also slang and for this reason as well should be in quotation marks.

Also, we are apparently icon buddies, but I've been going for five years strong. Get at me.
