Why Capitalization Matters
Dear people who type in all lower case:
We are the difference between helping your Uncle Jack off a horse, and helping your uncle jack off a horse.
Sincerely,
Capital Letters

Re: Why Capitalization Matters
Speaking of capitalization, here's a PSA: it's "ZDoom" and "GZDoom". The "M" is not capitalized. The "Z" is capitalized. Thank you for your attention, citizen, have a nice day.

Capitalization might not be perfect but it's the best economic system we have right now.

Re: Why Capitalization Matters
I usually use normal capitalization and punctuation. However I feel like deviating from that can convey tone efficiently.
all lower case with no punctuation conveys a deadpan tone imo
like it's great for sarcasm and snark
ALL UPPER CASE IS OF COURSE ANGRY SHOUTING YOU NUMBNUTS
And ahving lost of spleling misstaek convyes exxagerate exitedness!!!1! like your sooo hype yuo hav to post rite now as fast as yuor fnigers can taek you adn no poofrredign!!!!
Of course, you can also use smilies, but where's the fun in that?
