So you can hear them, obviously.

i use caps with work emails, so i , and others can see better, plus it is faster typing. in forums, i use all small letters

I’ve complained about this in a forum dedicated to veterans because some of the guys in there typed like their caps lock key is broken.

Apparently, some of the older guys there need to do it so they can see what they are typing. Something about their vision etc etc

Ever since then, whenever I see someone type in full caps, I just assume it’s an old dude that can’t see.

And, as I tell people, I don't SPEAK in a monotone, so why should I WRITE in one? : )

Why do some people post in blue font that you can hardly see on a dark gray background???

You're the most recent one that's done it LOL! I think most of us with old eyes would agree, blue on dark gray is hard to see compared to white on dark gray!

It's a free color-blindness test : )

Awe, Jeez, here it comes. Caps and blue font soon to be banned. Don't you guys think about the feelings of others?
