Now I know what some of you may be thinking "But the caps rule was too strict, and now we're freed from opression" or something along those lines. I'm not suggesting we bring back that version of the caps rule, I'm thinking of something a bit differently. When the caps rule was removed, people cheered, and when they heard it was for emphasis only, they tried as hard as they could to find loopholes. They used it for "emphasis" by capitalizing almost everything, and when I said that it was only to be used as nessacary, they noted that nessacary usage wasn't mentioned in the rules. To back up my argument here, I uploaded a sum of pictures onto Imgur to prove what I mean, (http://tinyurl.com/curt8do) but these do vary in annoyance. I'm also having some technical difficulties with five more images, but I'll try and get those up sometime soon as well.

So what I propose is that "too many caps" is up to the Mod/Admin. If a user is using too many caps (by that Mod/Admins definition) They get a warning, then a kick, then a ban, as would be expected. For example, If a user was using too many caps by my definition, but not by Read's (for the sake of the example, we're the only two active Mods/Admins) and I give him a warning, then a kick when the caps user repeats himself, it would be left at that. Naturally, if a Mod or Admin is being too strict with this rule, we will intervene. I don't believe this idea has any plotholes like the current constirctions on caps do.

So what do you all think?
