I know not everyone on here does but a small number still post in capital letters ALL the time, yet they have been asked NUMEROUS times to stop. Is the rule too hard to understand? Some I think are doing it deliberately. If it happens again with who I have in mind, I'm hugely considering reporting the post. Anyone else sick of it?

OMG I NO ITS SO ANOYIN LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Haha sorry couldn't resist :blush2:

[Ninastar]

It really does piss me off

[serensilver]

i have posted the odd thing in caps but usually when im annoyed lol!! :tongue:

[BIG-BRO-FAN]

I honestly don't mind if it's used OCCASIONALLY or to emphasise something but when some REPEATEDLY continues to do it, that's just not on.

[craiga1993]

i didnt even know it was a rule until i was told:rolleyes:

a bit like stories in The Sun where RANDOM words are PUT into CAPITALS to make them seem more OUTRAGEOUS. Sometimes done with LESBIAN ROMP. lmao that phrase makes me laugh when they put it in articles

I already have Walter Skinner on the case. This is serious business folks. If you are ever offered upper case letters JUST SAY NO!

[SiaSiaSia]

I always post in capitals :(

[Mister-Darko]

It doesn't really bother me. As long as it's readable I'm fine with it.

[Iceman]

It doesn't annoy me that much I just tend to ignore the post, I have a habbit of putting lots of exclamation marks at the end of sentences though.

[Firewire]

I only use abbreviations in capitals.

[Beastie]

my apologies if i have used capitals once too many times!

[BIG-BRO-FAN]

It's against the rules though isn't it? Quite annoying when numerous people have asked someone to stop and doesn't, particularly when 12 of 17 are in CAPITAL

Yeah, but it is a bit like how pirate DVD distribution is against the law. Everybody does it, people who dont like it ignore it, and nobody but a select few bored individuals really give enough of a **** to report it.

[Whenyoutouchme]

get a grip. does it even matter. at least pple r posting

[dpbb3]

i think posting in CAPITALS is rather SEXY.
abbolish this rule at once.

[MR.K!]

Sometimes caps are necessary to convey a tone of voice. Mind you i think if you do use caps they should be in moderation.

[Mark]

Almost as annoying as people posting things in the wrong forum :hugesmile:

and how do you define what IS and ISN'T in moderation?

Because if you exceed more than five units of CAPS per day you risk cirrhosis of the liver later on in life.

Say's the one with who's name is all in caps!

love it

[cocopops]

it really isn't that important, is it? is there really a rule that states you cant type in caps? geez, better watch the Gestapo dont get you!

[elliebelly]

I have BETTER things to worry about, it doesnt affect my life how things are posted...there are worse things in life to worry about. Posting in caps ...oh dear how terrible...rules ...rules sometimes are broken. I wouldnt do it on purpose as I did it once not remembering to take caps lock off...but it wont make me lose sleep..I dont care. :tongue: I find it more annoying when people go on a make such a big deal out of it and do not wait for the moderators to deal with it.

Why does it bother everyone? I dont do it, but it still doesnt bother me if i see caps.

Thank you for agreeing..I have seen some really nasty comments and received one for doing the ultimate of sins posting in CAPS!!! how sad. I have seen caps many times since..but as I said it does not affect me..offend me..or bothe me...rules fair enough but dont get distraught over it for goodness sake. Life has far more important things..soldiers in Afghan...children starving. Put things in perspecitive!!

[elliebelly]

and for me who seems dyslexic put things in perspective :blush2:

[bbnut]

No offence to anyone, but this is the most uptight forum I have ever been on! (I just did a quick count and I currently use 8 forums and have lurked on quite a few more)

I've never been bothered about posting in caps, slightly wrong titles on threads, threads in the wrong place, whats the point of worrying about that? I'm not letting it spoil my day. As somone else said, so long as it's readable, it doesn't matter.

But one thing that really annoys me is people who have a go at people who cannot spell. Have you thought that that person might be dyslexic? The batteries in their keyboards might be running out? (this happens often to me, though I do check for errors) Or even to a lesser extent have a health issue that is giving them trouble coordinating their hand movements?

I agree but if you honestly think this is the most uptight forum ... holy hell. This place is more Disney's Adventure than Auchwitz Birkenau. The rules only really get battered on people from really bored members, and most people ignore them guys. This forum is essentialy what happens when the teacher leaves the class and the kids start launching paper planes at each other.
