Why, oh why, do people still write in all-caps on the Internet?

Asked by laureth (27199points) December 4th, 2008

I can understand if it’s their first time, or if they accidentally tripped the Caps-Lock key and somehow didn’t look at or edit what they were typing, but to do it on purpose? Why? Do they think it looks more legible, or that it’s more important if it’s all in capital letters? Or are they just not thinking?
