IS THERE ANY WAY WE COULD GET RID OF THAT FUNCTION THAT CHANGES POSTS WHICH ARE IN ALL CAPS INTO SOMETHING EVEN STUPIDER? It Is Very Annoying To Instead Get Posts Like This When You're Trying To Do ALL CAPS For Emphasis. Today I discovered it even happened in titles and that is just annoying.

I'm sure it's there to stop PEOPLE DOING POSTS LIKE THIS WHICH IS JUST CONSTANT SHOUTING OMG but aren't they 99% of the time going to be spammers/mentalists anyway who'll get banned?

ALSO while I'm here is there any possibility of getting an "Are you sure? Y/N" dialogue box pop up when deleting subscriptions to threads/forums? I am constantly (seriously like, daily) deleting mine by accident and it's a pain in the arse to have to keep going back and forth to sort it out.

These are small niggles and I'm sure that actually it's all impossible because Martin is up to his arsehole in prostitutes and not giving a fuck, but I make the request just in case.

This can be PUBLIC YEAH WHOOOO!

Ummm.

I can poke about and look at the all-caps thing, but the rest I think we'd need actual access for.

No. The only things that should ever be in all caps are acronyms.

How do you know that what Stumpy just said wasn't, in fact, a series of acronyms, Raven?

(someone else posted but didn't say they wanted it public... but it kinda reads like a message that was meant to be public... )

AGREED.

MAKING A POST THIS WAY JUST TO BE ANNOOOOOOOOOOYING KINDA LOSES ITS IMPACT WHEN YOU HAVE TO END IT THIS WAY.

In fact I think I tried to edit it to say public but you can't edit your post to say public until it is public and then it is too late. Public.
