WHEN YOU TYPE IN ALL CAPS IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE SCREAMING. WHICH IS VERY ANNOYING. SOME PEOPLE EVEN THINK THAT IT'S RUDE. SEE?
And since that's the rule here, you need to follow it - out of courtesy to your readers and fellow columnists.
To be honest, using the proper case, punctuation, grammar, and spelling is just like wearing a suit to a job interview; sure, you could show up in a ripped t-shirt, torn jeans, and sneakers. Heck, you could even show up stark naked.
But you're not going to get the job.
People come to this site with problems, some serious, some not-so-serious - but all of them care enough about their personal problem to ask strangers about it. You obviously *want* to give advice, or you wouldn't be here.
That implies that you want your advice to be taken seriously. If that's the case, you don't have to put on a suit; you can even type while you're naked. But you'll get more respect if you make the extra effort to present your advice properly.
Because if YOU don't respect your own writing, why should anyone else?
PS - As I typed this, I just saw that you'd made an addition closing this question. I've already typed so much, though, that I'll still post this, if you don't mind. I'd hate to waste the time I spent on this. :D ]
Typing in all capitols is sort of like YELLING online.
It screams "Look at me, my words are more important than everyone elses"
Therefore, if you type a question in all caps, then they will not be approved. If someone notices that you are filling the question approval page with questions in all caps, then you will get banned.
And, if you type all of your answers in caps, then you are very likely to get bad ratings.
So, that's why you may be in danger of getting banned from this site if you always type in caps. ]
Just don't type in caps. Maybe they will ban you and maybe not, things are in a bit of flux right now. Either way, its annoying and an insult to your intelligence. So just, don't. ]
Ya you know what, its anoying as hell, get a noe way of typing, actually any thing besides tHiS, believe me no one likes it and it makes you just seem like someon trying to get attention ]
uh just dont type in caps or whatever and if they ban you just make a new accont! the end" by I-94? i ]
