  1. 1. Shift Or Caps Lock for typing capitals?

For writing capitals, single or multiple (like 3+) do you hold shift or use and toggle caps lock?

Shift for most stuff, other than if I have to type 5+ capitals in a row (for a software key for example)

Shift. 

UNLESS YOU WANT TO TYPE A WHOLE SENTENCE IN CAPSLOCK. THEN CAPS ALL THE WAY.

Shift always. I never use Caps Lock.

 

NOT EVEN IF I HAVE TO TYPE SOMETHING AS LONG AS THIS. IT JUST MAKES ME FEEL LIKE I AM ACTUALLY MAD AND SCREAMING.

Shift all the time, unless I need to type a long sentence in capitals like this: THIS IS A RANDOM LONG SENTENCE THAT I TYPED.

Shift. Its proper typing technique and adding pressing a button twice messes up my typing consistency at least. The place the SHIFT key is on my keyboard means I can press it with my ring finger. Something I rarely use for anything else. It just adds to flow

Always Shift, whether its a whole word or sentence. The only times I've used Caps Lock are when I've accidentally hit it.

I don't know what happened to him, but there used to be a forum user who would Capitalize Every Word In Every Sentence Just Like This Because That's Just The Way He Types.

 

And he would use Caps Lock to do it, not shift.

 

And he was a teenage American - like dafuq? How does he not fail every single essay/report ever written in school?

Caps Lock, even if it's just one character. I don't know why, I've tried to condition myself to use Shift instead, but I just can't do it.
