Remove The Caps Lock Filter On Posts
It Has Come To My Attention That If You Write A Post All In Caps Locks, Or Even Just A Word, Upon Submission The First Letter Of Each Capitalized Word Stays Upper Case, And The Others Magically Transform To Lower Case. I Do Not Approve.
JUST LIKE WHAT HAPPENED TO THIS POST, IT WAS ALL CAPS. HMM, IT APPEARS EDITING A POST ALLOWS YOU TO WRITE IN ALL CAPS

That hurts my eyes. I concur. I'd rather read all caps than have the first letter of every word capped. Wonder if I can fix this...

Leave the filter there, I reckon.
It serves it's purpose which is discouraging people from posting in caps. We can handle the oddball post with every first letter capitalised.....how much would we enjoy a forum where people were posting in caps ***** nilly

Yes, that's exactly what I think. People will most definitely take me more seriously if I write all in capital letters. I can't believe you figured out my plan. You're no fool, that's for sure.

That is a weird filter though. I would expect it would make every letter lowercase or something instead. I kinda like the idea of replacing their text with "i just got pwned by this forum" and lock their post somehow so they can't edit it. That would teach them to e-scream at everyone.
