    Seriously, I don't get why people get all pissed off when People Talk Like This. They could be from another country. Country's have grammar where you "Talk Like This". Talking Like This Is Normal, Don't Hate On Them.

    Just wondering, why does everyone hate it / think it's annoying when people use capital letters at the start of each word?

    like Potato said, they could be from another country where typing Like This is proper grammar
    we all have to get used to it.

    The excuse of people from other countries Talk Like This is invalid.
    One of the first things when learning English is proper capitalization. For example, only capitalize the first letter of a sentence, a proper noun, an acronym, you name it. Only German capitalizes ALL nouns.

    When You Talk Like This, it's basically not common sense. The first rules are always the rules we remember.

    Well, we sorta all have to adjust to each other's 'grammar rules'. But for the majority, This Is counted as 'wrong grammar'.

    When I read it, I kinda say it in my head like it is its own individual word.
    For example: I. Walked. To.
    Even though there aren't any periods, I still read it like that since you are meant to start a sentence with a capital.
    So yeah it gets annoying. Plus its basic English.

    +1 to potato

    This is a video game forum.
    Not an accidamic paper.
    There is no reason to be a sticker on grammer, as long as its readable.

    That siad Talking Like This Can Give Me A Headache From Time To Time.

    I see that as invalid.

    Some people haven't been properly taught English, if taught at all, and are unsure of when to use them. Take Arabic for example. They put different forms of letters on the end of all their words, the equivalent of using a capital letter on any 1st letter of a word.

    Let me demonstrate.

    ن = N. see how it is on its own.
    نن = Now see how the 1st N is different?
    ننن And you can get even more forms.

    OR some letters don't join at all.

    نان نون ندن نةن etc etc. Noticed how the last letter always looks the same? They just think in English the same rule applies. I don't blame them for not knowing. They don't know, or they copy the Arabic scheme. Yes, not many people who do that speak Arabic, but they might use a language with similar properties.

    Not trying to give an Arabic lecture, but I think I made my point. The other country excuse CAN be valid.

    But it's still unexcusable in languages that use the Latin alphabet (though maybe that's just me).

    Yeah, but remember how many places don't.
