You should take links to sites like "How to type like a wanker" with a little humor and read it to potentially take something away with you.
It's an interesting forum and it becomes even more interesting when you actually make an attempt to capitalize the proper words, use punctuation properly, and actually spell words out rather than abbreviating them all. Typing without an attempt to utilize the above makes people believe you honestly don't care about your posts and aren't asking to be taken seriously. If you don't care about your posts enough to capitalize, use grammar, and proofread before you post, why should we care about your posts and take you seriously? Hence the "wanker" link as no one takes a wanker seriously...
It's not arrogance, it's reiterating something that your school teachers obviously did not. Ignorance and laziness is all too often the norm these days, heaven forbid some people try and go against the grain and make properly formatted posts required.
