Nope, I actually find extreme use like that annoying
no

Nice...
Touch...
No, not really. I guess in my mid-teens I did abuse ellipses a little bit, but only in IMs and not nearly as bad as you're suggesting.
No....why...would.....I ever do that.....
No, although people Indonesia do that, I can tell you
My mom does that a lot.
no...................................................................................................
what the hell...if you put too many periods it shortens them to 3...
When people do that in text messages I always get the impression they're pissed off and I hate it.
I hate when people ask you a question in ellipsis'
"So do you want to come or not..."
FUCK YOU HOLY SHIT
ew, they imply a really negative and passive-aggressive attitude :'(

Wanted...

So secure...
It is... the power... the will... my fate... inside of me... calling me... I... must... obey.

I love ellipsis but I only use them when I want the reader to pause

I thought they implied a pause or make an omission... I could be wrong though girl;

in my experience, they're abused by people who are whiny, attention-grabbing, "depressed" teens
so i guess that could be a negative attitude
I've found those that use commas are often pretentious douchebags who conform to a societal ideal in order to create some fictional sense of self-worth in their otherwise meaningless lives

It was a stab, but I don't think it was a personal stab.
