Mod note:

 

There seem to be one or two members out to get warning points as if it is some kind of game. We're all up for some fun and banter, but this steps a little too far and is really just trolling.

 

Anyone found to be trolling in this manner will find yourselves with a permanent suspension.

Don't be so quick with your assumptions. Carpet has received a warning point for this and the language used in a number of posts.

APOLOGIES THEN sorry,it was an assumption i humbly appologise

I agree, the hub will be a much better place as long as no one breaks the CAPSLOCK rule.

 

Yes, writing in all caps is not a big issue. In comparison to some of the other issues and serious offences that take place it's not one we really should fuss about and quite honestly this has been blown way out of proportion.

 

dipslick was asked politely by a Mod to ease up on the caps lock on a number of occasions. It's unnecessary annoying and considered bad etiquette online, but no one is being gravely harmed by it. The issue is the manner in which this was handled. After repeated requests, not even warnings, dipslick continued this behavior and even after an official warning in the hope of getting the message across it continued.

 

Using CAPSLOCK is not something anyone would ever be banned for. I agree, if this happened it would be laughable. However, the continued disrespect shown to the mod team, myself and the community could land up getting anyone suspended.

Hi Admin

 

You know we just having a little fun and my comment was not meant to be taken seriously as I am generally a more light hearted joking kind of person.

 

With regards to DIPSLICk CAPSLOCK problem can't he just be let off the hook? I am pretty sure he doesn't press the capslock button just to upset half of Hub land. I also think it only bothers a hand full of people. I only know Dips to speak in CAPS and it's never bothered me. Just recently the whole CAPSLOCK thing has received a lot of attention now all of a sudden everyone is complaining about it. He has been using capslock for as long as he has been on the hub.
