i thought i had better give you guys an example of the kind of post i'm talking about since people seemto be misunderstanding what my original beef was about i think you'll find that trying to read through what i am writing here to be very hard on the eyes given the low-contrast nature of the colour scheme the lack of punctuation and capitalization and not hitting return between ideas. if you think that i'm picking on people because of their personal limitations or disabilities you're very much mistaken unless of course you consider laziness to be a handicap what i am really asking for is people to show some consideration for others when you are composing a post it really is quite a chore to wade through a long rambling block of text with little to no punctuation or capitalization to show where one idea stops and the next begins i thought about making this more elaborate by throwing in a few random lols and rofls and gr8s and stuff but it really was hard enough for me to do this without actually hitting the shift or period or comma key see what i'm talking about now? we all recognize that TYPING A MESSAGE EXCLUSIVELY IN CAPITALS IS SHOUTING AND IS CONSIDERED RUDE BEHAVIOUR so why is the lack of clarity and punctuation considered any less rude?
