More Annoying Post Format...

[ChefChiTown]

What's more annoying?

WHEN SOMEONE LEAVES THEIR CAPS LOCK ON AND TYPES WITH NOTHING BUT ALL CAPS?

Or...

when someone types a big paragraph and refuses to hit the shift key or use any sort of punctuation to let you know that their sentence is finished personally i find it really hard to read posts like this and it gives me a headache its even funnier when people dont capitalize words like america or mcdonalds seriously its so hard to read shit like this and i cant stand it

I had to go with all caps, it gives the impression that they are yelling at you.
Although, the no puncuation is annoying.

 

[Elwood70]

ALL FUCKING CAPS!!!!

The second example is much easier to ignore.

 

[Torre82]

Caps cannot be forgiven. No punctuation is just annoying and makes me think of the kids with ADHD that, in real life.. do not use 'verbal punctuation' and just string it all into a big run-on paragraph after paragraph.

I almost chose the face punch but I woudnt even want to joke about hitting you, you're one of the funny. Now BlueBalls might actually like it.. but you cook food and shit.. it might kill your day. So no.

What I cant stand is lack of paragraphs, this usally coincides with lack of punctuation. There are a few people on here, I wont name names that can post a page of text with no breaks whatsoever, even if I tried to read it I know I'd get a migrane.

I dont want to me a grammer Nazi, but, Format people ....... FORMAT!!!! The [enter] key is there, use it.

I also dont really like the excessive use of .................... this ....................... I use it from time to time, but not after every word, or couple of words.



But these are just little annoyances, and they dont really matter all that much.

Havent you ever 'read' something the way it was punctuated?!?

Like.. if William Shatner had a keyboard, you'd read it the exact same.. pausing way. And after his pauses, he usually says the next few words and/or sentence really quickly.

Bones.. are you.. there, man?! This is Kirk, I want.. I NEED.. to beam up!

Hah. Now you're going to hear Bill-Fucking-Shatner every time you read my posts.

I suppose if its a quote then yes it's acceptable, but to put spaces after every couple of words for what seems like no effect at all, isnt necessary.

William Shatner - Common People This is brilliant :1orglaugh

I hate when people shorten the words like the kids does in textmessages.

IT KINDA DEPENDS ON THE AMOUNT OF TEXT.

if one types only a small amount of text lets say 1 line of text the shouting is much more annoying than typing without punctuation and with tiny letters but...

I have trouble writing more than a 1 1/2 line without punctuation, so if you don't mind, I'll continue with punctuation and you can all treat it like a piece of text without punctuation and without capital letters. Ok guys?

... but if one writes large amounts of text, writing without capital letters, punctuation or paragraphs is much more annoying, in my honest opinion...

idk, wtf, lol, etc.........

that shit bugs me. Just type the damn word out

wtf wtsby cfg? ijaswot lol!

 

[CunningStunts]

All of the above. And while I understand some people can't type well (me for instance), I think some typos are ok when you're in a hurry, but there's no excuse for bad grammar and punctuation.

 

[Will E Worm]

There are many annoying ways to post.

No punctuation, No capitalization, caps, text/ l33t speak, no paragraphs, and so on. :hatsoff:

You all know who you are stop it now and get it together. :tongue:

 

[brkooduh66]

all caps is dumb, unless you are a sender intending to yell at a reciever, but really who cares, this in the internet and this type of communtion is ment to be informal, snetance format, puntuation, spelling, and whatever should be relaxed, its our on chance to let it all hangout, so chill about who and how things are typed, big woop, so i am not proper, i sesparate everything with a comma, run on on inproper sentences, take it easy, its a stupid internet thread, not a prep school essay

 

[gunslingingbird]

All of the above. All caps pisses me off. No capitalization or punctuation irks me. The use of 6,789 periods between every 3 words makes me get pissy and irate.

Another one that I find annoying is when people write a big huge post and don't separate it into paragraphs. If you have something to say, separate it into smaller manageable chunks of information. That's the reason why we have paragraphs in the first place. If I see a post that consists of a single paragraph 6" tall, I simply skip over the post. The person could've just written something to rival Shakespeare, or could've just revealed the secrets of the universe, but, if it's all written as one lump of words, I'm not gonna read it.

I hate it when middlefingerluv has a lot to say!

Just because it's the internet doesn't mean that people should type as if they've never written a sentence before.

U no wut I m33n? I H8 how ppull think dat typn whole sen10ces is hard 2 do.
