Capital letters in names

Postby David » Fri Feb 01, 2008 9:34 am

One thing that gets to me, more than a pet hate or something, is when a person's name isn't written with a capital letter for the first name and last name.

For some reason, some names go in to the NPL database with all lower case letters. Is there a way this can be easily changed?

Muzzington's post reinforces my beliefs that he's hilarious.

On topic: This annoys me too. Not enough to start a topic on the NPL forums, however, but it does bug me. Also, what's with nicknames being included in some players names?

I just have a tendency to ignore darren. Particularly seeing as he isn't important enough to have a capital letter at the start of his name. 8-)
