HereComesTom 2,269 March 22, 2015 Share March 22, 2015 As a programmer, I occasionally have use for it---constants in Java are usually done with ALL_CAPS and with underscores in place of spaces. But if it's a short enough constants name, I usually just use shift. I have to admit caps lock made more sense for typewriters than it did for computer keyboards, though. 1 Help the main six stop the Weather Factory Meltdown!

Denim&Venöm 19,754 March 22, 2015 Share March 22, 2015 I actually tore out the caps key from my keyboard. I was getting really sick of accidentally hitting it so many damn times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hypn0ticD 1,213 March 23, 2015 Share March 23, 2015 I occasionally use the caps lock key when I need to type something in all caps... LIKE THIS.

MysticShine 529 March 23, 2015 Share March 23, 2015 I just use the shift key. I think it's actually less time consuming than using Caps Lock, as you don't have to press the button to get your letters back to lower case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#1FluttershyFan 206 March 24, 2015 Share March 24, 2015 I USE IT WHEN I REALLY WANT TO BUT NOT OFTEN. I also occasionally hit it and get very mad. - "Um...

Revy ~ Two Hands 862 March 24, 2015 Share March 24, 2015 ^^40.45% of people are cheeky scrubs. Don't they know the SKILL it takes to hold down the shift key AND type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostfacekiller39 23,860 March 24, 2015 Share March 24, 2015 If I'm sitting next to one of my friends who is using a computer, I like to sneak-ninja and press it for fun. I also use it when I'm jokingly Caps Locking someone to death, but I'm about 50-50 on Caps lock and holding shift. Case in point, I never use it seriously.

Shou 100 March 24, 2015 Share March 24, 2015 Yes! I use it for my push to talk key in voice chats also when I am joking with friends. Funny enough I never take caps lock off at work because 99% of everything I need to enter is all caps.

Sommar 1,289 March 24, 2015 Share March 24, 2015 I don't really use caps locks. Even if I want to have a word all in uppercase, I still hold down the shift key while I type the word. Maybe if I someday use the Royal Canterlot Voice, then I'll use cap locks (it's so funny. When I typed "Canterlot", my phone autocorrected it to the word in caplocks. The irony lol).

KrazyDashie 1,847 March 24, 2015 Share March 24, 2015 (edited) YEP. WHEN I WANT TO TALK IN ALL CAPS.

cmarston1 5,960 March 25, 2015 Share March 25, 2015 Why Wouldn't you? Seriously I have been doing it for years and unless I am using a chromebook which for some strange reason doesn't have a caps lock key I use the obvious caps lock key instead of using shift. A lot more people use shift instead than I thought would. Huh who would have thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,980 March 25, 2015 Share March 25, 2015 I never use caps lock. Ever. It's one of those keys that I actually avoid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bird Mom 900 March 25, 2015 Share March 25, 2015 I literally have my caps lock key re-labeled as 'Royal Canterlot Voice'. For obvious reasons. After I did that I made sure that I used it more, for emphasis. But I use shift for often because it's the proper typing way to capitalize. "Pay attention to these petals, Steven.
