Describe the bug
If we check the forms, most of the textboxes has their hint text as all uppercase words. According to Jacob Nielsen, one should use uppercase wording sparingly or not at all as a formatting style. "All uppercase words are not as easy to read as mixed case words, and they can make the page look busy and loud."

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to 'https://www.topcoder.com/settings/profile'
  2. Click on 'Basic Info'
  3. See error in textboxes

Expected behavior
All uppercase words should not be used as a formatting style. Sentence case should be used.
