Actually I don't care a whole lot. I just wanted to "rile" people up.

1. I am a fsh with no i's.
2. You must be wearing Zubaz, 'cause you're daring to be different.
3. I am a man with 3 fingers...but that doesn't count my index finger nor my thumb.

I like it. I use proper capitilization and such in all my posts, or at least try to.


Are you honest when no one's looking? Can you summon honey from a telephone? They sat there with their hooks in the water and their mustaches caked with airplane glue.

Now that I think of it, proper spacing in the user name would be more pleasing too. And I don't mean using those little underscores instead of a regular space either. Just a plain old space. For example: The Calistanian. The perfect user name.

1. I am a fsh with no i's.
2. You must be wearing Zubaz, 'cause you're daring to be different.
3. I am a man with 3 fingers...but that doesn't count my index finger nor my thumb.

I see your point.
However, a true nerd wouldn't be using "Microsoft Internet Explorer" right now. They would be using "DOS Internet Explorer".

2. You must be wearing Zubaz, 'cause you're daring to be different.

Santo is wise beyond his posts.

1. I am a fsh with no i's.
2. You must be wearing Zubaz, 'cause you're daring to be different.
3. I am a man with 3 fingers...but that doesn't count my index finger nor my thumb.

Santo, have you been approached yet by the forum's
adopt-a-newbie™ program? If not, please see me
at your earliest convenience. Also, are you Canadian?

Santo, I see that your user name is not capitalized correctly. Can you do something about that? Awesome. Thanks.

2. You must be wearing Zubaz, 'cause you're daring to be different.
3. I am a man with 3 fingers...but that doesn't count my index finger nor my thumb.

In harmony with what the U.S. Congress is trying to attempt by subpoenaing (?) some prominent baseball players to testify about steriod use, I'm calling a hearing as well. This is for the flagrant use of grammar in user names. I therefore call the "non-capitalizers" to attendance to explain their reasons for going awry.

I'm dead serious.

1. I am a fsh with no i's.
2. You must be wearing Zubaz, 'cause you're daring to be different.

What about those with all caps? Do I get brownie points or something for using 10 capital letters? Really people, how many members do you see around here with all caps? I'll tell you. Out of the upper 356 people (People with a couple thousand post like BLT and just over 50 post like SHAZEB ANDLEEB) there are only 7 total (those two, me, TRANSMARINE, LBF1976, LUTINS, & MMD). Hell half of them are acronyms. Oh yeah Calistanian, are you going to hold the man himself accountable for not using "proper capitalization?"

By the way check out pages http://forum.frankblack.net/members.asp?method=postsdesc&FirstName=0&LastName=0&whichpage=97 97-195 {How the hell do you make words into a link without showing the damn link, itself?}. None of these profiles have a single post... That's nearly 3500 worthless members; one half of all members.

You're right. I should have clarified that improper capitalization is included. Even the acronym ones should really have the period sign after each letter. And "frnck blck"...why must you be non-capitalizatory? This madness has to stop...

1. I am a fsh with no i's.
2. You must be wearing Zubaz, 'cause you're daring to be different.
3. I am a man with 3 fingers...but that doesn't count my index finger nor my thumb.
