Aim,meebo Msn all the time people yell for talking in all caps...So i need to know; whats the deal?
SO? Whats the problem with writing in caps?
This topic is locked from further discussion.
"I think writing in caps is considered "bad netiquette", because it's thought to be yelling."
When I wrote on the board (when I was teaching) I'd ofter write in all caps. That's just how I usually write. But sometimes I'd switch to upper/lower case (which really bothered a student that had OCD and kept wondering if the all caps was more important info).
I think people shouldn't over exeggerate about CAPS. It avoids drama. I have no problem with it. In the end, the people bragging so much are the most annoying.

see i would probably mess with the guy then and just make random letters uppercase or lowercase
"Aim,meebo Msn all the time people yell for talking in all caps...So i need to know; whats the deal?"Its like when you text. Since you can't show emotion when you type and plenty of times things you type get taken out of context I think it universally became a way of screaming something of showing anger. Like if you are you say GO TO HELL....
"BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE YELLING!!! xP"Well if you put three exclamation points..I would assume you are.

yeah i would use caps in my writing to show my yelling but i don't do that all the time
I only write in caps when someone keeps missing something I said.It annoys me.So I WRITE IT IN CAPS...and then they will most definitely see it.
Probably by accident. Other thread: http://www.comicvine.com/forums/off-topic/5/so-whats-the-problem-with-writing-in-caps/31352/
