You don't have to use caps or asterisks, but using quotation marks is non-standard and mocked as only being used by illiterate people, so having the suggestion come from you is endlessly funny.

Actually, as you will know, the use of single emphatic quotation marks is standard, as are *asterisks* and _underlining_, although underlining is less common in recent years.
