Use of "All Capitals" in Titles

Folks

There's a rule in internet "netiquette" (ugh! I don't like that word!!) covering the use of ALL CAPITALS when posting on the internet. It goes something like this:

"It is proper netiquette to refrain from using all capital letters in internet correspondence. All capital letters denote shouting in internet communication. Shouting at other users is not normally deemed acceptable."

Can I ask you to bear this in mind when posting in CT? The Champions will routinely tone down "all capital" entries where we come across them.

Thanks in advance for your co-operation! :biggrin:

Cheers

Bugs

EDIT: In view of some of the comments this polite request caused below (!) - can I just clarify that I am only referring to Titles which are written completely in capital letters, or posts which are written completely in capital letters - commonly referred to as "all caps". I was not asking folk to stop using capitals here and there eg for emphasis. Sorry if this caused confusion. Embarassed
