Has anyone else noticed that the forum code doesn't like multiple capitals in the topic title? As a result of this ICA is forced to Ica, G/D to G/d and so on. Is it possible to turn this off?

TIA (or perhaps I should say Tia),

OK, I just checked the control panel and it has a setting "Stop shouting in topic titles?" and it is currently set to "Yes." I guess we could experiment with turning it off and seeing if it works (i.e., doesn't lead to SHOUTING). Seems to me we have more members who type all lower case than members who shout, and since we're more careful about who joins, spam is less of an issue. I'll turn it off, but if it causes problems or the Chief thinks there are other considerations, it may have to go back on.

Thanks! I too have noticed this and share Chris's annoyance with it.

Thanks, Ken. I'll buy you a pint next time I see you - two if we can have a Newbies forum!

We'll consider the other issue presently; bribery is always worth trying. But I'm overwhelmed at work just now, as this is the term I apply for "promotion and tenure," and a bl---y ridiculous and lengthy process it is.

Thanks again. I'll se if I can find some dehydrated beer powder I can post you.
