Why do they call it shouting?

it makes it seem unusually aggressive.

i guess since it's the generic public comment region, they make it sound more 'audible' since it could be considered more open spaced and in noisier areas?....but that is trying to associate it beside commonplace situations with multiple people and parties. :)

still, it would be kind of awkward to shout most of the things said in shouts. sometimes i try to imagine someone shouting some of the messages and i find it humerus

You have a very valid point. It makes me chuckle to think of someone shouting the comments left on my page from across the room or something like that. xP

Great minds think alike.


IT'S NOT SHOUTING UNLESS YOU USE CAPS LOCK.

Its a reference to music concerts and DJ'ing. Shout outs are just that, usually a verbal announcement to somebody. I guess at some point in time people thought it would transfer well to text format.
