HI PHILLUPA I WOULD RATHER HEAR YOU SHOUT AT ME THAN NOT TALK TO ME AT ALL LOVE TO YOU XXXX HOWIE

HI TARA, I READ ABOUT MY RUDENESS, IN THE THREAD....MESSAGE BOARD GUIDELINES....TIPS AND TRICKS....PLEASE KEEP NUDGED ........ I HAD NEVER COME ACROSS THIS THREAD BEFORE, SO THOUGHT I WOULD TAKE A LOOK, IT WAS THERE, I LEARNT, THAT I WAS 'SHOUTING' AT YOU ALL, BY USING CAPITALS !!!! I THOUGHT I OUGHT TO APOLOGISE AND EXPLAIN.................. PIPS..XX

Thanks Phillupa That is interesting. Well maybe I was right to think that when I joined then. Is that when someone types the whole message in caps or does it apply also when using one word in caps? Thanks again Phillupa xxxx

Phillupa Can you clarify someone has actually has a go at you for using caps ? And if so, how did they react when you explained your sight problem ? Because my thread is a general tips one, and is not a slur on members who cannot see well and have to use caps for this purpose. Personally i feel you are taking it a tad too personal now, by your comment on my thread (even though you have placed smileys on it) and on this one by mentioning you read in my tips thread about 'MY RUDENESS' I understand the fuss if you'd been slated on the board because of your use of caps , but cant understand your upset if you havent been told off. As said, no one minds you posting in caps as you have explained why, But all I ask is, if someone who misses this thread, pulls you up on your use of caps, I hope people wont attack them for doing it. If they dont know your circumstances, it wont be their fault Elaine x

Elaine, I dont think from what Pipps said *someone pulled her up*just that she has read *Tips&Guide, and found it in there,so has come on to give her reasons for posting in Caps,,

HI ELAINE, I HAVE NOT TAKEN ANYTHING PERSONALLY AND HOPE THIS EXPLAINS THINGS MORE CLEARLY. THANK YOU KAY, YOU HAVE UNDERSTOOD AND HAVE EXPLAINED IT PRECISELY FOR ME. PIPS XXX

Just read the 'Tips & Tricks' thread. It's ok Philluppa my question has been answerd.

Kay I had to ask the question, as it seems Phillupa seems more upset than she should be regarding the use of caps. After all, the thread is called Message Board GUIDELINES Tips and tricks Which although it contains tips (some things people need to be aware of on a forum )..It is not LAW., and shouldnt be percieved as such. Id also like to add, that some forums dont allow the use of caps throughout the text (other than in the right places) and some dont like text talk either. Posts will be removed in all cases.as sometimes the text is difficult to read and / or understand. (This is the case of a forum I belong to) Elaine x ps please dont get the wrong end of the stick, I totally support your need to use caps on here.

HI GILLIE, HAVE SENT YOU A PM. PIPS XX
