It would be nice if the forum didn't allow posts like this:

"OMG! MY PSP DOESN'T WORK!!! YOU GUYZ BRICKED IT!! I DEMAND A NEW ONE"

and put them like this:

"Omg! My psp doesn't work!!! You guys bricked it!! I demand a new one"

yeah. i second this. not that it's dishonoring the users, but also easier for other reads to read :)

Although that is borderline impossible to do with coding, I would think- I think we'd have better luck just having the mods, well, mod those posts.

Ok, added. If anyone types a message in all CAPS it will auto convert it.

Did you actually ix it cause I just read the post that sounded like OMG VIDEO DOESN'T WORK it went on like that for 3 lines. Would be nice though. and did someone actually post something like wat you said darkchild cause i really wanna see that.

nah, it's not a big issue though. Just send a warning via PM to anyone who posts like that.
