Users, why would you post questions or answers that are otherwise insightful and interesting in all lowercase? I realize that you can still be understood just as well, but it looks kind of sloppy. So why? Are you lazy? Making a statement? Is your keyboard broken? Enlighten me!

Hey peeps, I'm not saying I CARE. I personally don't give a darn how you type, so don't get offended. I'm just curious why.

Could be several reasons:
1) Laziness
2) Rebellion
3) Unintelligence
4) Carpal Tunnel Syndrome - many people I know with this syndrome do not use capital letters because it hurts their wrists more to do so
5) Or just not realizing that you are missing capitals - sometimes I do mean to capitalize a letter but my keyboard doesn't register it because I don't hold the key or use it out of sequence

*sigh*
I am not very good with the keyboard thing. It is just easier not to use the shift key. This is what happens when you are in your late 40's and take up the 'puter. Sorry that you find it so annoying.

at least we are spelling our words correctly. usually we only use lower case b/c it's faster to get out an answer that way and you still get the message no matter how pretty it is. just be glad you can read it.

Because typing in all caps is considered "yelling" or "shouting" by yahoo.

because the insight is what is important not the grammar, punctuation, etc.

DOES THIS MAKE THE WORDS MORE UNDERSTANDABLE OR BETTER?

WOULD IT BE BETTER IN ALL UPPERCASE?
