UMM....THEY TYPE ALL IN CAPS.

I was wondering if you could answer a question for me, since you seem to be bothered someone typing in all caps. Why does that bother you and some other folks? It was always my understanding that its only considered yelling if a single word is typed in caps. I always figured that the person typing in all caps has a hard time seeing. Just wondering.

Proper internet etiquette dictates that typing in all caps is considered shouting. If said person has eye trouble, there is a way to change the resolution on their own monitor to compensate.

All caps are harder to read. And yes, it is considered yelling. |

What happens if they dont know how to change the resolution on their monitor? And where can I get a copy of this "Proper internet etiquette" list? |

It's easy enough to do a search in google for changing the resolution if someone didn't know how to do it. |

I just have to say... some people say its yelling.. I think that's the dumbest thing I have ever heard. So what, they have their caps on. ooo man the world is not gonna come to an end. Get over it! just because the caps are on don't mean they are yelling! I hate when people say crap like that. move on! having the caps on is nothing important... don't you have something else to do with your time besides picking on people?

This is a SERIOUS offense. Anyone who uses ALL CAPS should be sent to the electric chair immediately. We CAN'T allow this to continue!

How To Use Forum Etiquette
Read the forum rules. Even if you're excited to be a member of a new forum and can't wait to join in, take the time to find the group policy page and read it thoroughly. Some forums are fussier than others about Internet etiquette. Lurk a little before you dive right in. Read a number of posts, or check out the group's archives. Get a feel for the tone of the forum so you can participate accordingly. Remember your face doesn't show. Words alone can convey sentiment, but without benefit of inflection or facial expression, they can be misconstrued. Use descriptive wording or emoticons to ensure your meaning is clear. By the same token, don't jump to conclusions about another person's intent in posting an unclear comment. When in doubt, ask for clarification. Type in lowercase or standard case, not in all caps. By the rules of netiquette, all caps equates to shouting. If you type with all caps, you will annoy and possibly offend other forum members. Say online exactly what you would say in person. In other words, if you wouldn't say it to the person's face in front of your Grandmother, you shouldn't type it into a forum. Be respectful. Internet etiquette is similar to standard etiquette in this area. Appreciate that your opinion is one of many. You can disagree with another person without being disrespectful or rude online. Ignore Trolls. Netiquette guidelines are very specific where they're concerned. If you engage in conversation, you'll raise your blood pressure and empower the Troll. You can't win a flame war, and you can't sway a Troll's opinion. Often, they don't even care about the subject; they live for the conflict and nothing more. Trolls are common and not worthy of your time. Ignore their posts—no matter how inflammatory—and eventually they'll get bored and move on. |

It was always my understanding that its only considered yelling if a single word is typed in caps. I always figured that the person typing in all caps has a hard time seeing. Just wondering. In the olden days, before internet, in the computer bulletin board environment, typing in all uppercase was seen as yelling. |
