Off topic but why do so many people capitalize "id" as "iD"? I did myself years ago as well but I have no idea why I did. None of their logos use that capitalization and my memory of the early games is too poor to recall where, if anywhere, it was written like that.
- shrikant 13y agoI've seen this usage in the wild a few times. It makes me twitch just like when someone types out "FireFox".
- maaku 13y agoor "BitCoin"
- rschmitty 13y agoI've never seen id written as iD until these comments, so I'm not sure and it looks very odd seeing it that way. I used to write it as Id, though perhaps because I was confused on when to capitalize a name vs a company who writes their name in all lowercase
- sjwright 13y agoYep, iD is definitely wrong. (And for anyone who pronounces it "eye dee" instead of the correct "idd", you're doubly wrong!)
- beedogs 13y agoApple Derangement Syndrome, is my guess. To some people, anything beginning with a lowercase "i" has a capitalized second letter by default.
