I was wondering why when you title a topic with all capitals, it makes everything after the first letter lowercase. For example, in my brass Secret Shot topic, I titled is "SS1 Brass", yet it came out "Ss1 Brass".

Talio is correct, I have Invision set up to force `Title Case' in subject lines. It will automagically lowercase the whole title, then upcase the first letter of each word. It also deletes second and subsequent consecutive punctuation. The downside, as noted, is that SSII becomes Ssii, YANO becomes Yano, etc.

The upside should be obvious, given Talio's excellent example.

Bless modern technology!

Could you mod the punctuation function to autodetect consecutive capital letters? Because there are very few blaster accronyms that have a consonant followed consecutively by a vowel, if memory serves me. Obvious exceptions are SSU, and XBOW. But I don't particularily like those accronyms anyways. Just an algorithmic suggestion, not sure how hard the code is to modify.

Thanks for saving us from the "Capitalists."
