I also had no trouble reading the post, but it goes farther than this.

The human brain also looks for shapes of words. Since all captial letters leads to no shapes in words it's harder to read all caps. Check this out.

You know that's harder to read. Not that you can't do it but it's harder.

 

[Majarvis]

I dunno, I didn't have any more difficulty reading the all capital words...

 

[Silverzone]

Is it just me, or is it harder trying to type like a retard?

it is alot harder trying to type f'ed up. its wierd.

 

[donbenni]

Although of course, technically spelling 'a lot' 'alot' is about as f'ed up as things get.

 

[Talentless]

I wonder, is it at all unique to be able to read upside down and reversed words, like those answers in some articles, like Ask Marilyn in Parade? I can, but I assume it is easy for most others.

 

[ledhed]

Is this the drifting forum ? I seem to be lost.

 

[stumpydino]

[demon of speed]

It's kind of os os I suppose.

 

[s0nny80y]

Seen it before, and while interesting... it gives a fair amount of people online some horrible, horrible excuse for typing like crap.

or a really ignorant excuse for forum conneiseurs to instantly ban users or lock topics because you cannot understand there english. ignorant because if you understood the first post, theres really no reason to complain, unless it is "ethically(?)" wrong.

 

[Stinky Chicken]

Exactly. It is readable but I can't scan it anywhere near as fast as I could if it were spelled correctly.

I could. I have "Mega-Unscramble-Words-Quickly Power" enabled.
