WHY DOES TYPING IN ALL CAPS MAKE PEOPLE ANGRY?
80047
I doesn't make me angry, but it is a general understanding that it means that you are angry.\n\nAlso, if I see a long post that is all caps, I just skip it, because it is annoying to read.  Don't know why, just is.

It's hard for people to take you seriously when you type in all caps like a raving lunatic.

maybe u typed in the wrong password or a wrong username like instead of .com u made it .co.uk. sumtimes your capslock must be on until u turn it off.

chiding people for being poor spellers when you (and i, for that matter) play fast and loose with capitalization rules makes you look kind of silly...\n\ni don't use spell checker cos i'm lazy, and if i spell something rong it's cos i want to.

Sometimes the suggestions this little utility makes has no connection to the words I'm typing. If you are talking about common words, then I understand your anger and agree with you. But why didn't you start the sentence with capital letter? Are you to lazy to press one key?\nSome just don't give a damn about spelling.

With computers use being what it is now a days you would think people would have learned to type. I think the biggest thing is kids get use to using short hand because it's "cool". Not to mention with the level of education most kids are getting it must be easier to read U rather then You. I will say however that I use "lol" a lot. Mainly because it's hard to convey laughing in print any other way.

Well, we Americans are often criticized for being lazy. To make a capital letter, you need to press the "shift" key. Since most people like to get things done the quickest, easiest way, they don't want to spend that extra millisecond (sp?) pressing that key. Hey, we're living in fast paced society! Just a guess. P.S. It drives me nuts when people do stuff like that too!

its because all ur emoticions hav keyword/keyboard shortcuts and maybe all ur letters are in the keyword shortcut. you can change it if u want by clicking rename or modify

They might have been offended. Personally, I don't report people for anything, because I don't let myself get upset over what other people like to write or say.  Don't let it bother you, it's their problem if they want to be angry over something so trivial. Besides it's just a stupid website, it's not like it will follow you the rest of your life.

Yeah, I've realized that some people have a go at others over things beyond spelling.  Some aren't good typists, some don't care and the others are spelling "phonetically", but the main problem is there are some really mean people on Yahoo answers that seem to get enjoyment out of tearing others down,  for whatever reason.  If you care enough to read a question and try to answer truthfully, you should be patient enough to try and "read between the lines".  Some people are in a hurry because they feel their question is urgent and some people don't care how they spell, or don't know how to spell.  I've said it before, this site needs more "constructive" criticism than it does hateful and hurtful answers.  Yahoo answers has made an effort to change this by offering "check spelling" but what more can they do?  It isn't fair to degrade someone for not being able to spell properly or degrading someone for spelling phonetically!

Instant Messengers are a threat to literacy and correct grammar because people hardly ever type correctly. And if they do, they still don't use proper capitalization or punctuation. They abbreviate short words like 'you' and 'are'. If this continues, the world will be uncivilized. Important documents like the Constitution may be illegible.

Typos in professional settings... signs, newsletters, mailings, and so forth. Pet peeve of mine. People that tail gate - makes my blood boil. WHINING - I CANNOT STAND WHINING - it got me an automatic time-out when I was a kid no matter what the whining was about. Even worse when it's an adult. Superficial people. The people that are close to us become part of our reality. Life is too short to allow my reality to involve fakeness or shallowness. \n\nBut number one, by far, is LYING - It is an insult to my intuition and my intelligence. It is selfish, cruel, and once again, introduces fakeness into my reality. I will not tolerate a liar.

I completely agree!  (wit U) It appears that it is easier for people to type sounds than actually become educated. Tread lightly, though, as we live in an over politically correct society!

Yes, it does annoy me.  People claim it is easier to write, but it certainly makes it harder to understand.  What I find really frustrating is that people treat the entire internet as a very informal environment.  In fact, there are many different settings online.  A chat room is quite different than a formal discussion group, and both are different than a business environment.  I wish people would learn to use a level of language appropraite to what they are doing.

They think typin like dis is kool. I'm on your side. I think it's retarded how people use "u" "r" and other acronyms. It takes like... what? THREE SECONDS to type the whole word?

Our Thoughts and feelings are Extended to One and All, at least in This Context.That's what's Happening Right Now, as You're reading This.It is a very Positive Effect! Just Think, if People that Hate One Another could somehow Communicate, perhaps with Computers, the Hatred might Cease!
