Have you noticed that you are the only person on this site that posts in caps? You should take a look at the protocol.

It's not whether or not it is a "big deal" it is about proper internet etiquette. We all know caps is considered yelling and most folks don't appreciate being yelled at. This has been discussed here many times and so far everyone has chosen to push the caps lock button and type normally. One or two words in caps for emphasis is fine but not the entire message. I'm sure you are right about the appreciation for the help but no sense in getting onto rfs56trk for bringing it to the posters attention.

Lighten up, folks.

Yes, everything in caps is yelling.

A few capitalized words are for emphasis on those words.

I think, however, that zoegrant was posting an emphatic THANKS!

Sometimes a person will type in caps not because they are yelling, but their eyesight dictates it...Just my 2 cents worth.

Could be the reason - but, a better solution would be to change the "zoom in" setting in their web browser?

Yes when I see CAPS I "see" older eyes having
legibility problems. Also I don't understand all
this nonsense about forums having these new
fangled typefaces that are sans serif which makes
for poorer legibility as their default/go to typeface.
Also the default type size should be bumped up to
the next unit. Jeffrey

On Firefox and Internet Explorer/Edge, if your mouse has the scroll wheel on top between the left and right buttons, you can hold down Ctrl and turn that scroll wheel to zoom in and out. Don't even have to look for options in a menu or anything.
