dgmodel Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 how come some ppl feel compelled or need to type in all capital letters??? do you think that theres a psychological issue behind it or something else??? or it doesnt bother anyone???

georgym Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 i think some people do it by accident, and they don't even realize it.I don't let it get to me unless it persists. But what DOES get me are those "key skip" or "syntax errors, like: teh(the), adn(and), etc......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nSyNcBaBy Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 i think the only reason why it bothers some of us... is because we think in online language... u know? we put emotion behind everything thats said here to make it sound more real.. or to see how that person means what they said... make sense?? those of us who read like that, are used to using capital letters to mean we're yelling or emphasizing a point or a word or something...so those people who dont read like that... and dont put emotion behind what they read/write.. will not think anything of it... and theyll type the whole damn thing in caps lockmeanwhile... its painful to the eyes for some of us to read it... because we think theyre shouting... just like it would hurt the ears if we were face to face...is that psychological enough for ya?

elementx Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 I cannot stand people who do that. To tell you the truth. It is so much easier to read paragraphs that are typed normal than paragraphs that are typed in CAPS. For those who think they are going to be noticed more for the caps. I think most people don't read the whole paragraph due to the fact that is it not easy on the eyes and they just comment about the fact that it is typed in all caps...SO TURN YOUR FUCKING CAPS LOCK OFF!!!!!!!!!!

naughtybabe Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 Maybe they do it to stand out from the other person's typing ... Or they are yelling what they are typing.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On presentations, or plan-o-grams....it just looks that much neater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
