    what does posting in lots of differnt fonts mean?

    Its simple does using lots of different fonts, font sizes, underlining, bolding and general font manipulation in text you post make you look like an intellectual heavey weight or a complete loon ranting?

    First, you learn how to spell "heavyweight".

    Learning to spell etiquette would be a good start also.

    In the days before computers, one of my dad's responsibilities was going through the post at the BBC and flagging up any allegations of serious errors in news reporting. All letters were read carefully, except those written in green ink. From experience, staff had long ago realized that correspondence in green ink was going to be complete bollocks, and so they could safely be consigned to the bin without any danger of missing anything important. Nowadays, the "green ink brigade" have put away their green biros and crayons. They now use big fonts, underlining and bold. But they remain the green ink brigade in all other respects.

    Yes, Hamsun and git. This means you.
    The sleep of reason brings forth monsters.

    A complete loon ranting, of course- but how else would you expect a loon to sound. sane and rational?
    Just as there are non verbal aspects of spoken communication, there are non syntax aspects of written communication.

    Don't understand what etitcate means however, all the changes in font sizes and manipulation of styles is really poor form and is usually the actions of the whackjobs on the board. Very poor posting etiquette.

    Surely a drunken attempt...

    Noticed Hazz's posts last evening.

    They all seem to resemble this OP.

    If when eating your elbows sway about clobbering people , or you splatter food all over the other dinners , that's bad manners ;
    however if you eat your jam roly poly pudding and custard with your soup spoon that's bad etiquette.
    As aggressive fonting hurts my eyes it should be banned
