Whats the big deal about CAPS,
i'm sure the guy is just exemplyfying the THANKS FOR THE HELP"
| | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 7,442 Bolter | | Bolter Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 7,442 | 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.

A few capitalized words are for emphasis on those words. I think, however, that zoegrant was posting an emphatic THANKS!  | | | | | Joined: Apr 2015 Posts: 336 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2015 Posts: 336 | 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? | | | | | Joined: Jan 2015 Posts: 910 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2015 Posts: 910 |
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

Don't even have to look for options in a menu or anything. | | |
