Not here at this site. I do not like being yelled at. For the love of God turn off the caps.

Freedom to annoy other people will result in people having the freedom to annoy you back.

CAROLYN SIREK....this is NOT America.....this is a privately owned and publicly accessible website which has rules of conduct, some of which do not impinge on your flawed perception of 'freedom of speech', and some that do......we'd rather you accepted and respected the manners and conduct of this 'private' place as you would when visiting any neighbour's property or home....

Styl...yes, the site is Hosted in the US....but it's governed by rules of our Community's making, not the US Constitution, or the Geneva Convention, or the Diet of Worms, Magna Carta, or any other such treatise...

While I agree totally with all of you about the CAPS, a more diplomatic way of telling someone NOT to use them could have been used. There are lots of people that don't understand "netiquette". While there is nothing wrong with any of the comments that were made, the offender ended up being the offended.
I think that CurleySue might not have known about "netiquette". If it had been patiently explained to her/him the whole exchange might have been avoided. Simply telling someone to stop isn't very diplomatic. I know no one has to be diplomatic, but it does help.
CuleySue, if you read this, Any website, no matter where it is hosted, can be accessed globally. So the statement
just doesn't apply anywhere on the net. I would assume there is a fairly large percentage of the visitors of this site that are not American.

People who like typing in all caps must be lazy since they don't wish to be bothered in hitting the shift key to type like "normal" . Although there is nothing wrong with typing in all lower case, yet hardly anyone does.
I do agree though that education should come first when it comes to someone not following netiquette. It is entirely possible this person hasn't been online very long and/or is underage. Just as we don't know where everyone is from unless we ask, its the same with age.
It can be easy to assume that everyone who comes to a website is knowledgable in the basics, but unfortunately that isn't true.
Its just a matter of those who frequent a site having to go for the lowest common denominator when "scolding" someone. It doesn't help to run off new visitors when they "break" the rules, especially when aside from the CAPS which I dislike immensely this person was simply seeking answers, not out to cause trouble.

Lets go by the sequence of posts.
She stated her problem and asked for help.
WOM gave her a possible solution and suggested she turn her caps off.
Keila also gave her another possible solution to her problem.
She made it clearly that she liked the caps on and she showed no intentions of turning them off. All this and she didnt even say Thank you for the help that was provided to her.
I dont think she is going to have a stroke by turning off the caps, instead she chosed to be defiant.
