So, just so you know, my roommate sometimes aquires my cell phone, and changes the banner. Stupid shit like “dog bung,” and so forth. The thing that pisses me off is, the fuck doesn’t use capital letters. Upper-case writing is correct at the beginning of a sentence, or as first letters in the main words of a title. This is not the first time i have encountered such problems. People who e-mail me, or chat with me on ICQ never follow this basic rule of the English language. If I can take the milliseconds to create capitals, and make my sentences look educated (and yes, esthetic), so can you! SO FUCKING DO IT! PLEASE!!:mad:
At the risk of being a bastard, I know of no reason to use extra exclamation points. More than one does not add extra emphasis.
I almost wrote this post without using capital letters, but I figure somone else will do that.
grammar nazi
this has been covered before and no one changes or looks up words or creates grammatical sentences because someone asks them to
it’s a hopeless cause
All my best,

P.S.: Welcome to the Boards!
Oops how unoriginal of me, Jorel. I didn’t preview, so I didn’t see your post. Now I look silly. Oh well.
The main thing is that people can spell fairly well and do not st@rt

Seriously, no capital letters, is not a capital offense.
Oh my God I crack myself up.
I don’t understand why you’re so Mad[sub]ison[/sub]. This issue is like a Little Rock or a grain of Salt [sub]Lake City[/sub] in a Concord jet… just not important enough to get upset [sub]D[/sub]over.
What?! I’m using Capitals!
I am the furthest thing in the world from a grammar freak, but allow me to be the first to say “tee hee!”
Ah, don’t use em. They suck, even with Jaromir Jagr.
Yes, but is the banner on your cellphone actually a sentence?
hi. welcome to the boards, Jonny5.
much as i appreciate and understand your issue, i prefer to not use capitals. i have figured that pressing the shift key every other sentence only serves to piss me off. and those milliseconds, when accumulated over the years i’ve spent typing on the internet, account for a lot of time.
it’s not that i don’t know how or when to use capitals, it’s just that i choose not to. it’s a whole lot more convenient, for me atleast. i know that there are a LOT of people on this board who agree with you, yet i hope that they understand my point of view and allow me this.
**Why only every other sentence? Strrrrrange!
Take it easy there.
Use capitals or not, just realize that I (and many other people) won’t bother reading your post.
No, but it is a title!
I’ve posted this before, too, every time this issue comes up.
For some one (me) who has vision problems (me), the use or non use of standardized capitalization, paragraphing and punctuation, can make the difference between being able to read your post (by me, 
) or not (by me 
).
The difference in size, spacing and way the letter is formed help folks w/poor vision (me) differentiate between the words, ie read them.
so, yea, I’ll skip your post, more likely than not, if I can’t read it. (and yes, I have my font set to the largest size)
Well it doesn’t bother me a lot if you don’t check your spelling (acquire / aesthetic), but it doesn’t help your cause (to look educated).
for a minute there, I thought you were referring to me, as I usually start my wriitng on a non-capital.
BUT I SEE THAT WASN’T THE CASE< SO FORGET I SAID ANYTHING>
and have a nice day.
No. Sorry, you’re not allowed.

wOtta wacko.
That’s right, baby. USE those capitals. Papa likes it when you USE 'EM! USE 'EM GOOD!
