Opinions are always subjective. That's what an opinion is, and I've never claimed that my position wasn't an opinion. I've just been stating it.
: :Anyway, that's how I stand... If he really cares that much, Ferrantino is very welcome to email me and explain the reasons for his unusual and distracting diction.

If he's willing to explain to me that it IS simply a matter of his wanting to be an individual, and explain how that particular form of expressing one's individuality outweighs the fact that his message (whatever it might be) becomes difficult to read, confusing, whatever, for most of the people who attempt to read it (you're not going to convince me that the posts are not difficult to read), then I'd be willing to change my opinion.
