All Caps ?

[Moesha]

It works if you type other words as well, but not if you just type capital letters or capital letters and the smilies.

I'm not really typing anything but i was curious to see if the caps worked....seems they do for me.

[shepgirl]

Ooops, no they didn't work. My post was fine until i pushed send and it's in regular print now, same as this one will probably be...funny i never noticed this before.

They work fine for me, both the caps and smilies.

Thanks for 'splaining that for me Moe.
Yeah, its random when it does and doesn't work for me. It doesn't happen very often so I guess I'll just learn to "deal".
Oh, and I went back to that thread and posted again and the caps worked.

It works if you type other words [in lower case] as well,
but not if you just type [ALL] capital letters or capital letters and the smilies.

Example posts to follow ...

Example ~ typed in all caps.

---------------------------------

Edited remark:
EVERY letter above the dashed line was originally in
ALL CAPS ...
Without some words in either mixed (Upper & lower case),
the BBS seems to change the ALL CAPS postings into "normal"
First word Capp'd and all others all lower case.

Example #2:

Typed in a combo of Smome Caps, a FEW ALL CAPS,
and nothing too extreme.



-------------------
THIS one turned out just as I typed it - including the
mischsphelling.

Now that was intresting - I never use all caps but I was curious.

Oh - that's because "all caps" for one's whole post equals "shouting" in online forums, so is not allowed. We do let some folks, like Catmandu, who has eye trouble, keep things in all caps, but in most forums, you've got to "lower your voice" for at least part of your post, that's all!

All caps is generally considered shouting in nearly every online environment, and I hate all caps anywhere. Catmandu is one that I tolerate caps from, since, like Karen says, he has eye problems.

Well, there's my answer!! When I was typing LMAO that was all I was typing. Not in a sentence like this. Ok, I feel better now. I know I am not losing my mind.
Thank you Karen and Phred.
