Just Wondering.....................

Why if I use a few upper case letters in a row here, the forum automatically drops it all to lower case ?? I see others doing it, so it must be possible. Perhaps I have something clicked on or off preventing this from happening.

WORKS FINE FOR ME.

Do you have cap lock on?

That doesn't matter. With it on or holding down the shift key. No workie.

 

[WhiskeyDreamer]

If you go to Settings, what do you have selected under Misc Options. See pic below.

 

[Gino]

Yep, that's how mine looks.

 

[WhiskeyDreamer]

Then I've got nothing. Sorry.

I'm just testing to see what happens WHEN I TRY TO POST ALL CAPS.

 

[Gino]

Try this. Only write R.I.P in all caps and nothing else before it or after it. Don't preview it and just post it. See what happens for you.

See, in the middle of other COPY, sometimes it works for me.

 

[Gino]

R.i.p.

 

[Andy D]

ME TOO, LOOKS FINE,
Does your text stay all caps while you're typing and change
after you submit? If not, I would say it's a setting on you computer or in your browser....

 

[WhiskeyDreamer]

R.I.P

And just to test it in the R.I.P of other text.

edit: Didn't use cap lock, just the shift key. There has to be a setting somewhere that changes it for some people.

 

[Gino]

Everything looks fine while typing. It changes after submitting..... %?@#(&^6!

All caps test

Edit: It would appear you are not alone. Should we start a lowercase club?

EDIT WITH ALL CAPS

EDIT WITH CAPS AND PREVIEW

All caps test

We could, but it's hard to show you're angry without the caps.

Honestly, it would be neat to know the combination of why it works sometimes and not other times.


Another one is, when you use the little icon ROFLMAO all by it's lonesome, it will not appear, but the letters will. Another glitch, but this one is different because some people can and others can't.

All caps test---first try all caps

I SEE WHAT YOU MEAN.--- edit with all caps

 

[Gino]

Hmmmmm, the plot thickens.

 

[Gene@mpls]

or.... the plot sickens.....

 

[Gino]

Nope, you read that wrong. It's THICKENS.

Somewhere, someplace, can't remember where, but it's a setting in your auto spelling auto formatting that does it.
