    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.
    Aren't we in the trust tree, thingey?

    Yeah, hitting the return key every couple of sentences doesn't hurt

    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.
