Along with adding "z" and "x" to the end and/or beginning of your handle?
The selfish illiterates give ME the burden of having to translate that into legible words by fixing all the capitalization errors.
Is this just some trend among teenagers? Or is the grammatical apocalypse coming sooner then we expected?

Lyonette I don't know! Why do they do it? Does it not jut make the process of typing more difficult? Yes, it makes typing much more difficult, and it takes much longer. It makes for very secure passwords, but that's the only use. I think they're doing it in a traditional teenage urge to be "cool" and "rebellious" because the destruction of grammar is the only rebellion that hasn't been done yet.

"Toggle Case" as it is formally called by Microsoft Word, is a form of making posts more confusing.
It's actually often used by Literate typers who want to confuse the illiterates. This is the same with using symbols in a post. It's supposed to be confusing. It just is. I don't understand why.

To me, that type of print has the feeling of "young, immature one trying to emulate anti-heroic cool."
Names like xxxblackrosexxx (Sorry if anyone actually has that name) are meant to seem dark, gothic, emo, or angsty. Pity it's so fashionable.

I don't know about everyone else, but the Occasional double capitalization for me tends to be an accident when typing extremely fast. Eg: HEider, thats just my pinkie being retarded and not moving. XD

That kind of typing is actually very useful.
I've found it's a very efficient way to immediately (and correctly) gauge someone's intelligence. No starting a conversation or getting your hopes up, no disappointment. Just an unadulterated red flag.
I have no problem with it besides the eyesore. xd
