ibm4mad Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 The Admin, Kiki and I moderate a kids chatroom on the Xirc network. Whenever there is tons of the rules being broken, we do what is called a rule check whick sets the room so that noone can talk except for mods, and displays the rules. After rule checks, I hate it when people say "Oh can we have another one!!!" As admin mentioned before writing in all caps is considered yelling. So when we politely tell them to lower their caps, some say I dont know how. Everyone knows about that... If they know how to connect to a chat network or even find a decent kids chat like this one... they definately should know how to turn off their caps /me considers painting all the caps lock keys in the world a bright red Geez...

Wolfie Posted January 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Here's the logic that I use for knowing that they know about the caps lock... How is it that they can turn it on, but no matter how well you explain where the key is and what it is named, they cannot find it? If the key is in a place where it could get hit by mistake, then it's in a place that it can be found easily. If not, then they couldn't have hit it by accident. Either way, since Windows boots with the caps lock OFF, they can turn if back off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibm4mad Posted January 21, 2004 Report Share Posted January 21, 2004 You do have a very valid and good point there. Plus, in my opinion, if someone does not know how to turn off the caps on their computer, they should not be on a chat room to begin with. However, sometimes I continue to argue with them just to get some humor out of all their lame excuses. They can be quite creative at some times. style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif style_emoticons/default/mad.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted January 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2004 I like when they act like they don't know that there is a difference between ALL CAPS and using lowercase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
