I'm not able to reproduce, and your content should never be altered in that way (note HTML5 came out as expected in this post). It's possible an addon or spellcheck made the change on your end.
Sometime in the last year or two, same thing for me, it was a 1 word answer, like TCP.
But actually ... memory serves that it would take it if it was TCP/IP, but not just TCP, for instance the number or the extra non-alpha character made it work. I actually tested it, probably in-thread with a few reply tries. I forget what made it work, but obviously I also felt there was a problem.

html5
It's doing it for me!! Same for totally different browser.
(After playing with it here)
I simply clicked Quote button, then, with caps lock on, typedin HTML5, then clicked 'Preview Post'. I don't know whether just hitting 'Submit' will do it, because I didn't want to make multiple (messy) test posts.
@dugan, did you (there) just post, without any 'Previe=w'?
Edit: 'bug' occurred in below post. (I guess I'll go ahead & try an extra/test 'just post' next; sorry if 'too much noise')
EDIT append more: For fixers/testers: try playing with Previews,
using 4+ only caps, plus a non-alphanumeric, like:
Code:
A AAA
So, no need to 'post', to reproduce this: see post #5 below:
@Jeremy: 'bug' is: all capS+non-alphanumeric in a post, gets forced to lowercase.
@rtmistler: "Tcp/ip" cannot be [SOLELY_CAPS_SHOUTED], as an answer :d
@Habitual: pls dont read my posts til I'm done editing (==tomorrow)
@World: please don't read my posts until I learn to write (==never )

Looking closer, it appears the entirely of your post was "HTML5", which tripped the SHOUT filter. I've made the filter a bit smarter. Thanks for the bug report.
