@Cynderstar I didn't say butthead. I said butthurt. That's an internet term that is often used by all ages. Welcome to the internet.

And it's spelled "mature". Get it right.

@Those whom are using caps: Are you serious? You're making me laugh. You guys are painting such fools of yourselves. Like DarkCynder said, this is why people say kids shouldn't be on the internet. Because they can't handle it, and they act like this. All you're doing is proving people right.

And Purple, yeah she's 10. That's why it's so funny that she's acting more mature than you. She can handle the internet. It's because of people like you that people assume she shouldn't use the internet, even though she's mature enough to stay.

And we criticize so much because you give us a reason to do so.

You three are inmatture and sound exactly like a screaming five year old. You guys are hardly in any position to accuse CAV of doing the same thing. You can use caps if you want, we do have free speech, but your'e still making yourselves look stupid. Really, really, stupid.

I find your use of words to be immature and is similar to a screaming 5 year old. Quote: Butthead. Yeah, that's real michore. -.-

Caps is used for grammar. It's an alternative to the shift button. People didn't put the caps button there so butthurt users can use it to scream like a 5 year old.
