When I'm chatting, I never really use puncuation nor do I capitalize things, I haven't been doing that on audiogames.net either, although for more i'mportant things (essays? papers? reports?) I have to go back and put periods, commas, exclamation points, question marks and quote marks etc. Point is: When reading, writing, or otherwise doing anything email-related, heck with it... Dunno why, I'm just not used to capitalizing in this stuff. Rofl!
