WEREN'T YOU THE ONE PRETENDING RECENTLY TO BLOCK PEOPLE WRITING IN ALL CAPS?

just kidding, I get you feel this is far more important than the promotion of a weight-loss blog or whatever that dude was promoting... (or is it?)

I didn't notice, I used to submit to Hubski button and it picks up the format that the source has apparently. But I think there is a difference when you are posting content that you aren't attached to as opposed to your own blog.

I didn't block anyone but I filtered them. I would expect anyone to do as much to me if all my posts were in caps.

Wait, it's possible to filter specifically the posts written in all caps or you filtered the people who did it often ? If it's the first... How ?

Ha. No I filter people that I think are only posting content I don't like and have no interest in participating in the community. In this case, they happen to post in all CAPS EACH TIME THEY POST CONTENT FROM THE SAME SITE. So I filter that user. It has no effect on what other people do or do not see etc. Just keeps their posts out of my feed.

But there is not an ALL CAPS filter :)
