Since common computers can't portray the inflection or tone in a
person's voice, how articles are worded can directly affect the
response to them. If you say
Anybody using a Vic-20 should go buy themselves a life.
you'll definitely get some responses---telling you to take a leap.
Rather than be inflammatory, phrase your articles in a way that
rationally expresses your opinion, like
What're the practical uses of a Vic-20 these days?
which presents yourself as a much more level-headed individual.
Also, what case (upper or lower) you use can indicate how you're
trying to speak---netiquette dictates that if you USE ALL CAPITAL
LETTERS, people will think you're "shouting." Write as you would in
a normal letter to a friend, following traditional rules of English
(or whatever language you happen to speak).
