I thought I noticed this yesterday but am sure today - only the first letter in a word is posting as capitalized, seems like the rest are defaulting to lower case?

Check out this post where it should read "G G G G G R R R R R R R !!!!" (without the spaces) It read correctly when I typed it but didn't post that way. :shrug:

(I know, random post, but jimf deserves at least a growling for dissing my Sox.)

Also may be related to this, or at least Sterling's sig looks funny there.

HMMMM. Let's see how THIS comes out. I've used all caps for the first and fifth words. I will preview the post first then actually post it.

In my preview of the post the two words in question have all caps.

Are you posting from a computer or a tablet or smartphone? Sometimes those spell checkers act like they're from another planet. ;)

Was the GGGGRRRR you typed the first word of its sentence? It should have appeared as you typed it, unless it was the first word in the sentence.

I think if an *entire* post is in upper case (like i'm trying to do with this one), it'll change it.

I tried the same and when I went to preview the post it showed the whole thing in lower case and the box where you post in that you can edit changed to lower case also.:ponder:

Same laptop I've been using for months, and the growl was the first and only comment in the post before it was edited.

Eureka! I think that's it. The other post where I noticed it is here and it's the same thing, supposed to be all caps.

Maybe this is TUG's way of telling me to stay on topic and stop yelling. :p

Nah, it's just a harmless way to let off steam when frustrated, much better than throwing a teacup across the room. :D

I never felt threatened by someone throwing a tea cup. Now if it's a full bottle of Jack Daniels, I know you mean business.:rofl:
