How often do you EDIT your posts?
So you don't look like a retard who cant spell.


How many times do you edit a post to correct typing errors? From the looks of this forum, NOBODY!



edited to correct grammar :-"

I only use the edit button if I forget to add something, or I type a word thats so unreadable that even I dont understand it, but if I can I avoid editting, so pretty much 0 times

I have a condition which prevents me from seeing my own typos until after I post, so I edit almost all of my responses.

Why should I take a post seriously that doesn't even bother to take itself seriously?

Sloppy posts are just a waste of space. Nobody wants to sift through your verbal trash, looking for an edible morsel.

I also don't read "word bricks", make an attempt to make your posts pleasing to the eye. Something that encourages people to read it.

in that case, I shall write more word bircks and make make sure theres enough typo's in a sentence to make you not read it... 1 less opposition in world events couldnt hurt.

I edit posts constantly.

Oh wait, you mean my own posts... <_< :lol:

I actually edit my own all the time. I just rarely check the Add Edited by line checkbox, so you don&#39;t know when I correct my own typos... :lol:

Quite often, sometimes just because of typos and sometimes because my english needs some improving and I find some terrible grammar errors. :D

I edit my posts. I think it&#39;s important for people to clearly understand what I&#39;m trying to say.
