Is it right to judge people how they type? For example some might type like this...

1. HELLO, HOW ARE YOU TODAY?
2. HELO HW R U TDAY??
3. helo how r u todays xxx
4. And many other different ways...

Yeah. I mean what's with some people typing in capitals the whole time. As if, by typing it that way, we somehow read it louder than other people's posts/chat?

If a girl types in capitals on Facebook I get turned off for some reason. Probably because I don't like loud girls.

No I don't but there is a certain line which shouldn't be crossed and it's crossed by one forum member in particular by using your 3rd example!

So if you don't judge them, how is there a line that can be crossed?

No, it's definitely not right to judge somebody on how they type. Like with me, it's rare I'll type properly simply because I just can't be arsed. Yet, this gives people the view that I'm quite stupid, which I find extremely ridiculous. Yeah, some ways that people type can be extremely annoying but there's no point in judging them over it. A lot of people can be quite new to using the internet and don't really understand the whole capitals thing and such, we were all like it once!!!!!!

But if they judged you as being a person who can't be arsed, they'd be right ? ;)

ok these threads are really starting to piss me off 'IS IT RIGHT TO JUDGE...' thing is the ones who say they dont judge im not being funny but that's absolute BS because no matter how much ppl say they dont judge its untrue, everybody does... anyway yeah i judge ppl on typing but i'm not a grammar nazi or anything, my typing changes depending on who i'm talking to and what i'm replying to. obviously this isn't a very serious thread so as you can tell my typing sucks and i will probably be judged on it... but oh well lol!!

Pretty much. Everyone judges, and as people said in the other thread, it's bad depending on how you act upon that judgement.

yes i do judge people for the way they type but most the time it isn't a bad judgement, i just sorta know what they're like

although it's quite annoying when people have to put a full stop after EVERYTHING especially if it's somewhere informal like on habbo or forum

In my general experience, people who type unintelligibly are generally unintelligent and i tend to judge intelligence

Like, I actually judge people who don't type with capitals (which I do myself actually) - but not so much in a casual setting, more in official settings or places where you really should type properly

pEoPlE wHo TaLk LiKe ThIs need to literally stop though

I can't stand angry capitals :P If you're going to use angry capitals, at least go for something like:

RAWR, I'M ANGRYYYYYYYYYYY.

Wow, that's not as big as I remember it.

Anyone who claims they never judge people, is a liar.

I definitely judge people based on their typing ability - if they cannot type, they come across as lazy (or very young). On the other hand, if they have the capability to type particularly well, I would consider them to be intelligent (and I would probably care more about their opinions).

Like How Do You Even Have The Patience To Capitalise Every Letter UGH

I definitely judge a little bit, more if they capitalise the first letter of every word than any other way.

But if you go onto say hffm, and see how they all type, cannot stand it! I like to think they aren't idiots, but I'm never going to end up befriending anyone who "typz lyk dis". Please, you sound like you're 8.

I do judge people occasionally on how they type, I do think how people type effects how they will make a first impression towards people, therefore my reason to judging them!

yes but i prefer ppl who talk in small caps or shorten words cause shows they don't take this place/themselves seriously. lmao @ ppl lookin down on others grammar, just bc u type in caps and full stops, doesn't make u more intelligent lol

In fairness, I genuinely find it more difficult to type "lyk this u bc" and so on. Only ever did it via text because everyone else did and friends always laughed at how I used full sentences :L

Personally, I do look down on text like that - just personal preference as a grammar nazi.. :L

I don't do capitals, it's just not 'me', I think it looks nicer small letters! even my username doesn't have a capital. idrc if ppl judge me for it cause what counts is the meaning behind it, not what it looks like </3 :'( plus i can write an essay well enough apparently so doesn't matter what i do out-with an educational or work environment

See, sometimes I think usernames look good in little letters, although I still have all mine as capitals for some reason :L I just always write in the same way; don't really change all that much between work and "play".

Yeah it's called internet etiquette.

You wouldn't drool on an envelope, and you wouldn't shout unnecessarily over the phone, why is the internet (another communication medium) any different.

I'm not the best at spelling and grammar but I really find it difficult to understand people who type lyk wht im doin now.

And I can't stand people who capitalize every single first letter of a word.
