Just a quick update on the rules, especially for the forums. From this point forward, Caps and Punctuation rules are no longer standing around the site.

If you have received a warning in the past for either of these, it is now null. (It'll still show up on your preferences page, but it will not count toward being frozen in the future).

It's going to be the same as when the foul language filter was lifted. XD There will be a lot of caps for a few days maybe, and then it'll all die down.

I'm on the not yay side of this one. I appreciated the forums for the don't use excessive caps rule, among a few others. 'inwardly groans' I'll be skimming a lot less forum topics now, for sure. 'sigh

Ah, that's going to make things interesting the next few days.

YUSH! Caps were always my downfall, I press caps lock instead of 'a' all the time. I'm so happy

Now let's hope people are intelligent enough to use the caps and punctuation sparingly.

: You got a warning for posting WOOHOO!? well, geez. I say that all the time. It is a form of expression and it would be difficult, and boring, to say woohoo. See how boring that looks? lol

Thank you so much! I sometimes pressed CAPS when I typed and didn't know until I got a warning.

I like things like this and OMG! this but something like HAVE YOU READ THE NEWS? is beyond annoying. I'm not freaking blind yet and do not enjoy being yelled at. Oh well, it's good to know there is some consideration for such things.

Sigh. One thing that made the forums more tolerable here were the rules against chatspeak (which is of course long gone now) and caps and all that jazz. I'm going to miss this rule. And probably avoid the forums even more.

Thank goodness. I got yelled at on Pirate Day for saying ARRR!

Now if only the chatspeak filter could be lifted on URLs so it doesn't alter my deviantart link.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

NOW THERE'S NO MORE RULES ON CAPS!

XP People are so going to abuse this just a tad. But I like the freedom of it. Gives us more space.

Can you at least keep the Chatspeak down to minimum? 0.0 My eyes will bleed.

Oh god... really?

Can we get an excessive caps filter then or something? I'm so not psyched about this. One of my favorite things about subeta is that it tends to encourage literacy and coherent typing... this decision does not.

I know... kind of depressing knowing that one of my major draws here is now gone. I can't see why you would want those rules gone. I mean, who wants to read a board filled with chatspeak, caps, and run-on sentences?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

So..Umm..Will anyone at all get unfrozen. i have friends frozen some of which may be of this rule. =P

So, then, the rule of 50% of the text cant be caps is no longer a rule??

OMG! Yesssss!!! Would it be possible to lock some of the topics that have an extremely excessive amount of caps on them though cause people will do it now just so people will look at their board. I think it'd be cool if the UA's could change the case in the title to have less caps if possible.

So, does that mean no rules about caps then...so as much as you want? It's not really clear especially since new caps rules came out like a few days ago. ?

Wow, that will stink
