Post; All Caps


This was only an occasional irritation before but seems to be popping up more frequently now. Can we add a "no all caps" addition to the rules?

Actually I was asking the mods for their opinion. Notice the forum I posted the question in. If I had meant it for general discussion it would've been posted in "General Chit Chat".

ALL CAPS = BAD...

I'm afraid that the ones writing in all caps are the same guys who never reads the forum rules anyway..

But I can make it an addition to the forum rules...
