Happens to me ALL THE TIME :oops: I press "Submit" button and realize that I said it wrong or forgot to put smiley in there or misspelled something or my fingers didnt listen to me so I wrote some brutal sentence and so on. Almost everytime I post :? Not that I type, check and then press "Submit" but posting and then editing.. smetimes 2-3 times :oops: :| :D

happens to me pretty often, but usually only if I think of something useful to add.

I usualy don't edit it, but I check quite often first with a preview, to make sure it makes sens ...

It always happens to me... :roll: Sometimes it's difficult for me to find the perfect words and the right sentences to explain something in English... :)

I use the preview function, but sometimes also "edit" is needed

Yeah even i need to press the edit button most of the time to correct a few typos here and there but not always .... say 7/10 times

You should always edit posts.

That way you post something in a heated debate... knowing that you will get an answer - but quickly change what you said to make the responder look like an idiot... :P ;)




Or not.

ehehehe you like to do that eh?? :P :mrgreen:

Cheers!!!

Yes, I do. I know it's dumb, but some times I click Submit instead Preview... Always when I'm submitting pics...

If I want to post a rather small reply pretty fast. I just type like mad and press the submit button. Quite often something is spelled wrong, or I forgot to say something, and I have to edit my post right after I posted it.


But I check my longer replies always before posting. Don't have the edit after posting problem there ;)

I'll edit something if i've made a really bad spelling mistake or to add something that I forgot, but most of the times I wont bother for a small typo. This place isnt too bad and not too many pedantic arseholes unlike a few other forums :)

And if I do fuck up, I can just say my english is bad ;)

I make lots of mistakes as I usually type fast. I also sometimes make mistakes when typing the code when ie. inserting an image. So using the edit button is a must for me. I
