People who are having a go at me for my spelling: I am from Australia, we spell realise with an 's', the proper way. The language is called English, not American!

People just don't get it. All Caps is the equivalent of shouting, and unless you're paying by character (see generally: text messaging) "r" is *not* an acceptable spelling for the word "are."

Some people don't know, and I think most don't even remotely care, that in an on line universe writing is more important, not less -- it's how we make a first impression. I don't know about you, but my first impression when someone writes in all caps is: "what an idiot." Most of the time, unfortunately, virtually nothing happens to change that initial impression.

What's even more mind boggling about it is that there's a "check spelling" option right there...just a mouse click away...no need to even leave the current page.

O WEL WAT CAN U DO.

Yes, I dislike it veddy veddy much. When I first was learning internet etiquette I didn't know this, though, so I started TALKING TO EVERYONE LIKE THIS THINKING I WAS JUST SAYING HOWDY. I like it when I can actually read what people are trying to say, insteadof seing all the mispelings and run on sentences AND CAPITALWORDS LOOKIN' ALL ANGRY and they're poor grammar what realy anoyings me. It was very difficult for me to type that sentence since it was so annoying. I'm sorry you had to read it. :( Here's to happy thoughts! <3

Yeah, it is rude and annoying. They should take the extra half nanosecond to undo the caps lock.
But gee, do you know how much time they use by yelling all the time? Probably upwards of 3 seconds in their lifetime!
Wow.

This is not an English class so why bother, we are just here to have fun not to be graded to pass an exam. This is only small thing to be worried about, that will add wrinkle to your beautiful face. Cheers and have fun.

Well, punctuation is something that I could complain about, and I'm not crazy about Caps Lock, but spelling errors get to me most, especially through complaining about proper grammar. "Realise" is not a word. "Realize" is a word.
