Pet hate of mine, really ruins the view in "todays posts" when checking to see what's new

Why do people think that posting thread titles such as ....."URGENT, NEED HELP NOW" all in CAPS will make a difference

Or the usual " Car won't start?????????????" followed by the obligatory 17 question marks or 12 exclamation marks

Surely one or max 2 would suffice?

Just sayin....

Because they tried nothing and are now out of ideas? They tend to be thankless ingrates, with low skill levels and a poor vocabulary, as suggested by their complete lack of syntax and grammar, not to mention spelling.

Amen. I change them as and when I see them, but there's only so many times you can delete 45 question marks before it gets boring ;)

Lol.....Thanks Sam

I usually do the same, removing dozens of question marks, exclamation marks, titles ALL IN CAPS and or edit spelling mistakes etc
Makes for a view that's easier on the eye and helps with search results
