Very serious question

[Mono~rail]

Why Do Some Posters Type Their Posts Like This With The First Letter Of Each Word Capitalized? It Makes The Post Very Difficult To Read And It Is Senseless.

If You Type In All Caps, The Dis Changes It To This. TRY IT FOR YOURSELF AND SEE! YOU HAVE TO GET AROUND IT IF YOU WANT TO BE IN ALL CAPS.

Maybe the posters who type with every first letter capitalized work in advertising. When I was working for the newspaper here as their computer graphics designer all the ads were done this way, with every first letter capitalized. I don't know why they said it makes it stand out more. But once you get used to capitalizing ever first letter it is hard to type in the usual way.

It's usually when they've typed in all caps, so the board tries to save our sanity when it's hard to read it. Unfortunately, it does not work on the AlTeRnAtInG LeTtErS.

Mono~rail, is this what you're keeping busy with while you lament the loss of "Runaway"?

Really? I Never Knew That.

Sorry. I had to try it for myself to believe it. So, it's no one personally, it's the boards fault I guess.

I'm Just Testing It Too. I Wasn't Aware That The Dis Would Change It Automatically.

I have noticed. It drives me crazy as well as all caps and alternate caps and lowercase.

If You Type In All Caps, The Dis Changes It To This. TRY IT FOR YOURSELF AND SEE! YOU HAVE TO GET AROUND IT IF YOU WANT TO BE IN ALL CAPS.

SO HOW DID YOU MANAGE TO HAVE YOUR 2ND SENTENCE STILL IN CAPS?

edit: and now that I quote you, mine isn't changed?

Mono~rail, is this what you're keeping busy with while you lament the loss of "Runaway"?

Sadly, the answer is yes.

I have often wanted to ask that same question -- nice to have at least some sort of answer (of course there's still the wondering if that is really the case -- does that count as a pun?).
Mono-rail -- I see you captured an invisible picture of Tinkerbell -way to go!

That annoys me too! I want to yell *You are not in Germany*. Although Germans don't capatalize every letter, just nouns, right?

To annoy you.

 

[Aimeedyan]

I am a brat and completely skip those posts. I can't handle them.

If it makes anyone feel better, I'd skip it if it was in all caps, too.
