So um, if someone made a post, or a thread with capital letters, do you take it as shouting, or someone desperate to get their point across? Or do you just accept it and not really care?
Haha, no I usually take it as emphasis on something. A stress or accent on a word or phrase, for example. If it's all caps, I usually take it as some sort of advertisement or official-like form.. because that's what it's technically used for.
I don't really care, it only bothers me if they do it on purpose or do it all of the time >:3 then it annoys me, but sometimes if it is an argument or something then someone uses caps I think they're shouting.
Nope, I don't. BECAUSE I do it too. XD Sometimes I just think of it as letting a huge sigh out or something, or I'm just angry. =P Maybe it's just making my voice louder, but not to the point that it's yelling. |: =shrug=
I think capital letters as a way to grab attention in threads =D
I mean the threads with the bigger bolder capital letters will always be seen first.
But I usually use capital letters a lot
Typically, I see all-caps and think more emphasis than shouting. Typically when I write something in all-caps, that's what it's for. Unless the whole sentence is in all-caps which then I take it for shouting.
Of course, reading this thread, I can't take anything in all-caps as anything other than shouting... XD
