Why do people insist on using all lower-case letters? This isn't some chat room where you have to try to carry on a conversation in normal time. Is the shift key simply too much work? It just irks me.
I hate you. You did that just to piss me off.

DON'T MAKE ME PULL THIS THREAD OVER!!!!
There's only one way to solve this: BREAK DANCING COMPETITION!! I hear Dirk Gently's Robot is a force to be reckoned with. But it would be very foolish to discount The Eldritch Mr. Shiny's Worm skills this early in the game. It may come down to Poppin' with a competition this close.

It's basic self-centered-ness: "The tiny amount of effort involved in using the shift key for me outweighs the immense amount of effort it takes all of the readers to decipher my gibberish!" I'm at the point where I don't read anything that lacks capitals or punctuation (which means at work, there's one manager who's effectively invisible to me).
Must... resist.... urge.... to.... rename.... thread....
This has gotten off-topic. I mean, more so than it was already.
This is nothing.
One of my girlfriend's students was asked on a quiz, "What monsters harassed Odysseus on his journey home?"
Their answer:
"herpies"
What in the world...? Nevermind--I give up. use ur goddam lowercase letters

It's laziness, pure and simple.

It actually doesn't seem like that big of a problem to me. The only offenders I've seen are Sharoth, windknight, and Rhyan Garrow. And myself and Heathansson, but we're just being snarky.
i am not trying to offend anyone !!! ~Wicked smile~ Ok. I will behave now.
Hey now!
I do my best to keep my "i"s in the correct case... I'm quite a bit better with them than I was five years ago. It doesn't help that my leftshift key is a bit sticky and doesn't always connect, but that's neither here nor there.
My big issue tends towards capitalizations at the beginnings of sentances. I blame Everquest/WoW - I certainly learned to touch-type, but bothering with the niceties of capitalization were never a priority. ;-)

Heyyy, no need to get riled, I was just citing a few minor examples to prove to Dirk that it wasn't a big problem. I wasn't trying to make anyone angry (except maybe Dirk. Heh heh).

nah mate, this isn't riled. Riled is saved for other boards, where calling someone a !@%$!$ @#$#@!$%ing @!#$ is considered to be not trying hard enough. ;-)
I think that, quite possibly, this is the one messageboard I frequent where good manners and civility (without excessive moderation) is good form.

I know what you mean. The DDO boards make Paizo look like the Land of the Happy Shiny Love Hippies.

Oh, must not forget AWED and Will Trev Oli.

True dat. I shudder to think what the WoW boards are like (I'm not that brave to venture into that den of iniquity.)

Whilst I played WoW, I avoided those boards like the plague, lest I catch the dumb and turn into a drooling moron who actually preferred playing WoW to getting together with some friends and rolling the polyhedral dice.

Um yes it is. maybe when we try to use the shift key it messes up everything else. i for one have shift key problems. and im lazy.
