There are lots of sources available outlining what is acceptable ettiquette on the internet ("netiquette"), such as....
But -- and this is important -- use capital letters sparingly. One of the most important rules of netiquette is to turn off the "Caps Lock" key. Why? Because when you type in all capital letters, it comes across as shouting. Most of the time, writing an entire sentence in capital letters is overkill:
I AM FINE THANK YOU. HOW ARE YOU DOING?
Capital letters, besides being considered rude, are harder to read than mixed-case letters. If, for some reason, you cannot type in mixed case, choose all lower-case letters instead.
Unless your message is vitally important, mixed case is better. or even lower case is ok.

THANKS FOR THE TIP!😀
this is basically common sense isn't it?
I remember when my perents were working shift work, they communcated vie handwritten messages in a diary and if my mother was pissed at my father she wrote with the caps lock on! Quite amusing really....
I believe Most of Us know about shouting on the Internet.... I have been typing for 40 years... the keys were much harder to press down in those days... Mechanical typewriters were the go... the harder You typed the darker the print was.... just as well computers down't do this... We would be able to tell who was 'tearing their hair out' by the very dark printing... and there wasn't any Shouting on typewriters..

I enjoy the content of Lee's posts very much, but I admit that I find the large text off-putting. It's difficult to read, I have to back away from the monitor a few metres.
