| Jul 25, 2011 at 5:35 | comment | added | anastrophe | The many thousands of people I have communicated with professionally who have never expressed any difficulty understanding my communications because of lack of upper/lowercasing suggest that your anecdotal suggestion is in error. Calling a person "illiterate" whose commentary you have just read is indeed insulting. I will point out that every contribution I have made on SF since this discussion made clear the norm, has conformed to appropriate upper/lowercasing. | |
| Jul 25, 2011 at 5:19 | comment | added | John Gardeniers | @anastrophe, if you can read all lowercase as effectively as proper case you are the exception, not the rule. Proper case is not just a matter of appearance. If you feel insulted by anything I've written then by all means feel free to write correctly and remove my reason for posting such things. | |

| Jul 25, 2011 at 5:01 | comment | added | anastrophe | Thanks. My command of the language is nearly impeccable; the use of upper and lowercase does in any way affect the intelligibility of the content, it merely affects the appearance of the content - for someone to claim that they thought that English was not my native language because of missing uppercase letters is patent trolling. Please note that there has been no failure to use correct punctuation in my writing on SF, so I have to assume that was thrown in merely as a gratuitous insult. | |
