When people write in capital letters, do you think they are shouting?

for example if i said, ‘WHAT THE HELL’ would you think im shouting?? lool

Answer #1

When you type in all caps or write in all caps, yes, it means you are shouting or yelling your words. That is why we discourage people from typing that way, not only for that reason but because it isnt proper typing etiquette and its also very difficult to read and your questions will get ignored by most of the users.

Answer #2

Exactly.

Answer #3

yes it does mean that u r shouting or yelling the words

Answer #4

Not quite, this can vary down the person who is doing it. If you’re using caps just to tick people off then you aren’t essentially yelling, you’re just being clever at your own expense and pleasure. Not that I recommend it but that’s just what I think :)

Answer #5

lol true

Answer #6

same =]

Answer #7

Not always in a bad way =/

Answer #8

Yes most of the time it means your shouting or raising your voice. I find it ok when someone is explaining something and uses caps on a certain word to just make things clear, but I find it annoying when they do a whole paragraph or sentence and it’s just not nesesery.

Okay check this out: ‘’What is wrong with you?’’ vs ‘’WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?’’ The first way sounds like you’re just concerned and wondering what’s wrong.. the second one sounds like you’re being rude.. capitals make a huge difference.

Answer #22
