othickman 6 Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 Y'know how txt spk is banned on the forum, I was just wondering if people wanted the same to happen to ALL CAPITALS. 'Cause I'm not sure about you guys, but I find it really annoying, I mean at least people can understand it but trying to read a large post of it (especially if it has no paragraphs) can get quite frustrating. Or am I just sensitive? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
just jack 998 Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 some class it as shouting but i couldn't give a flying, in all fairness Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shepp 2,285 Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 I don't like it, looks like shouting. I think it's maybe people who don't know how to start and end a sentence. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

littlefish 586 Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 I find it easy enough to read, I am not offended by it at all. What annoys me more is peolple who do not use full stops etc. I don't like text talk either. I appreciate everyone can make spelling mistakes now and then but I think text talk is a sign of what the future of Britain is going to be..........either full of lazy bas$&*&s (deliberate spelling mistake there) or thickos/wannabe gangstas who could not be bothered to go to school and take advanatge of a free education (well, paid for by taxpayers), either way, I hate text talk.

Or am I just sensitive? :icon_redface discouraged but not banned. way i look at it caps should be used to emphasise a point but there are other ways to do it. can't ban caps altogether or sentences will look very odd. ricw Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SNAP SHOT 194 Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 I find it hard to read when caps lock is on, And there are no paragraphs inserted. So then i choose to not read the post. Simple as. I'm sure others flit past the topic posted too, Snap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
