Default Problem when posting new thread

When ever I start a new thread I prefer to use all caps in the title. Problem is no matter what I do it will get changed to the first letter is capital and the rest are changed to lower case. It happened with this thread also. Others have found a way around this problem but I'm having no success.

This is a feature by design and set in the system. It's called "Prevent 'SHOUTING'" and is enabled in thread titles. Can you point to an example where someone has gotten around it?

You can have a title contain words that are all Capitalized, such as CA, in part of the thread title would not revert to Ca. But you cannot have the entire thread title in all caps.

In each of your example, there's atleast one character that is not capitalized, and thus, the "shouting" script does not work.

AIRAID, K&N, VARARAM INDUSTRIES & S&B FILTERS INTAKE SALe
The "e" in Sale is not capitalized

WTB: NPP in a box
"in a box" is not capitalized

STAINLESS WORKS HEADERS & EXHAUST xTRA DISCOUNTED SALE - 10/31/2010
The "x" in xTRA is not capitalized
