My name begins with thunder,
not a timid little sigh.
It rises like a banner,
not a pebble rolling by.
Yet here upon your website,
HP, hear my decree:
you flatten me to lowercase,
a digital injury.
I am Geof, capital G,
a crest, a crown, a start,
not “geof,” a fallen acorn
rolling off the page apart.
So lift my letter upward,
restore my rightful height.
A name deserves its majesty,
its capitalised birthright.
Until you mend this mischief,
I’ll chant in bold defiance:
Respect the names of users,
this is non‑negotiant compliance.

My name begins with thunder,
not a timid little sigh.

rolling off the page apart.
So lift my letter upward,

A name deserves its majesty,
its capitalised birthright.
Until you mend this mischief,
I’ll chant in bold defiance:
Respect the names of users,
this is non‑negotiant compliance.
upper case now sorted... I am back to being Geof
