One.
People used two back when typewriters were used (which have uniform spacing) to give ease of reading. There's no reason to use multiple spaces now. -- No amount of planning will ever replace dumb luck. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Just one. Ness already said it, but two was for visibility back in the day.

I still use two spaces. I like the extra space.
I still use two spaces. I like the extra space. Oh man, one space really closes in on me... EDIT: Wait, WTF?!?!?! GameFaqs actually auto corrects your sentences to one space after a period?!

From: Gu3rri11a | #005 Forever, I'm pretty sure. Almost all forums do this, unless there's a <pre> tag or something. -- No amount of planning will ever replace dumb luck. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Technically it's one but literally no one who doesn't have several large spiky sticks up their ass cares. I usually alternate randomly between one and two with no real pattern... just depends on how many times I reflexively press space
