I don't use them unless I'm narrating. In that case, I preface /say with ¶, as in:
L'yhta Mahre: ¶ The guard narrowed his eyes, staring daggers at the lalafell in front of him. "Y'sure y'want t'do this, popoto?"
The ¶ mark indicates that the text that follows is narration of NPCs, the scene, and so on.
In normal RP, I use quotation marks in /em, but not /say. If I need to break some speech up with actions, I'll use /em for it, as in:
L'yhta Mahre runs a hand through her hair. "Ah... that's complicated, you know?" Her ears droop a little along with the tip of her tail. "I don't think I really have an answer for that..."
If I want to talk to someone OOC, I religiously use the double-parentheses unless the discussion is clearly OOC, as it would be in a PUG or over tell without some other context.
