Another absurd use of meta

Well, what is a META for?

No need to.  Some people know the use of the term and have demonstrated it here.  :)

GGW is killing it today. Grateful set anyone who wanted it up with that glorious boarding assist but respect is due for GGW to get there first.

Whoa whoa whoa, lets not get carried away with all the capital letters!
GGW is pronounced "G, G, W," correct? Grateful was the first word of a sentence. Both should be capitalized.

The AP Style guide makes clear names of entities are to capitalized in both situations regardless of that entities chosen stylistic choices.

So you've quoted the Style guide, and I can totally understand that approach, but it seems like relying too heavily on that source can be confusing for some people.  Is there a way that we can agree to respect each user's choice?
Yes, absolutely. I am always an advocate of acceptance despite my personal fastidiousness, and you asked so politely. Cheers.
