Here's the general rule:
* Periods (full stops): You don't put a full stop after a period.
* Other punctuation: You do put a full stop after other punctuation marks like commas, semicolons, question marks, and exclamation points, if the sentence continues.
Example:
"This is a sentence." (Correct)
"This is a sentence...but it's a little strange." (Incorrect)
"This is a sentence; however, it's not very interesting." (Correct)
