Caps Lock
 
I tend to type the titles of books, movies, etc. using all upper case letters as taught in a college writing class. When I pressed the Caps Lock key on my keyboard to type in the titles of a couple of movies in another thread only the first letter was capitalized and the rest appeared lowercase. I don't recall having this problem before at HDC. Just wondering if there might be a reason for this other than my keyboard going bonkers.

The board doesn't let you type in all uppercase letters there has to be some lowercase in your post as well. You can get around it by putting in some dummy lowercase txt in white.

I have never heard of that. Writing titles in all capital letters.

It might be old school, but titles of books, movies, are in uppercase. Short stories and by logical extension episode titles are in quotation marks. Might not be adhered to much anymore.
