Hey Ooook...
This is speaking as a person who frequently berates his friends for not using capital letters in text messages. I agree with you...it really is quite annoying.
​
You're supposed to put spaces around ellipses ... .
​
But I'd agree that missing capitalisation is hardly warrants (ahem) capital punishment. Arach's posts look fine to me, whereas those of some posters need to be read 10 times before you can extract any meaning - even if corrently capitalised.
