Is there like a option that makes it to where the form will capitalize my "i". Every time "i" put down a "i" <(like that) "i" have to capitalize it. "i" no it is not that hard but it gets very annoying after some amount of time so is there a way to make it to where my "i" get caped for me.



I'm on Google chrome

No? Are you talking about where it will do it automatically in word processing applications? That kind of thing is actually not good as it encourages lax practices in typing form. The key is to use the opposite hand from the one pressing the letter you're capitalizing. ThEn YoU CaN bE a CaPiTaL PrO.

Not just for me, for EVERYONE. Regardless, that is not up to PGI as the editor you and I are typing in right now is most likekly some standard plugin that probably wasn't developed by anyone at PGI, and even if it was it would be a bit of a headache to code in letter recognition at that scale. It would have to take like a regular expression that checks back 1 letter from the content so like:

var reg = /^1\/ \i/; //or whatever the 'look back' character is
var reg2= /\i/\ /; //I don't even know if there's a character for spaces, there probably is but I don't write RegExps

if(test.reg($('thisContentWhateverItsCalled')) && test.reg2($('thisContentWhateverItsCalled'))) {
$('thisContentWhateverItsCalled').html($('thisContentWhateverItsCalled').length() - 1);
$('thisContentWhateverItsCalled').append('I');
}

or something. That wouldn't work anyway (only novice-level experience with jQuery and Javascript). In any case, it's not worth bothering with for something that's not really expected from rich web-media stuff.

What does this have to do with MW:O?

The same reason the Great Houses are fighting about. Some leaders want i capitalized. Some think that's just stupid and not really that big a deal that you have to press shift. They've been fighting centuries over this, and trillions of people have died in vain...still they fight.

Yes, the off topic forum was apparently too hard for him to find and use.

I've yet to run into a forum where it will auto-capitalize for you. You are beyond lazy at this point and a sad addition to the millions of other individuals that do not understand proper grammar or care to know how to write properly. Or at least half-way legit.
