So why are people always flamed if they say anything in CAPS? it seems kinda childish to me
Because using all caps is childish? O.o (when done intentionally)

I don't know the origin (though a lack of means to express it otherwise is probably enough) but generally you assume people writing in caps are "yelling" (as opposed to talking normally and calmly without caps).
While you can end up "yelling" politely and speaking normally in a very crude/bad language, it certainly doesn't help to react calmly to something when you interpret the other as not being calm either.

I always reply (even have a macro for this one), "It's ok, I'm bilingual, I can read in both UPPER & lower case!"

/agree
When i see someone typeing in caps, i usually assume their angry or shouting. although in WoW, when you want to emphasize a word there isnt any other way than putting in caps (i dont think) :)
