To all who may feel the urge to email me: I am making a new rule- I will not reply to any emails should they violate some very simple rules:

1. ALL-CAPS ARE USED THROUGHOUT OR AT LEAST LIBERALLY. I DON’T LIKE TO BE SHOUTED AT…
2. The subject is missing — is”(no subject)” worth my time to read? The subject line is like a summary of a book - if I’m going to spend $10 on a book, the summary better be good…

Of course, this applies only to my personal email - can’t really ignore work-related emails

Wikipedia has a great article on this: Netiquette.

This is one of the few topics that for some reason, I cannot explain why I have an issue with.  I just do.  I’m not trying to be pushy when I ask a certain someone to first “please use the caps-lock button to turn off caps-lock when sending emails” and second “please add a subject to emails”.  These simple tips aren’t hard to remember.

Thank you!
