So, I just edited one of my post after realizing I made yet again..ANOTHER typo. Then it hit me- I use the Edit Post button so many times on CB, it's not even funny! pinch.gif I probably use it more than half the time I post. Sometimes it's to add something, take something out, or because I made a typo.

So, my question and the point of this topic is: How often do you use the Edit button to edit your posts?

Thanks. And yeah, I read over my post AFTER I submit it. sad.gif Which is probably why I use it so much.

normally, I don't because I read over my posts before I submit them, but sometimes I use the edit button if I miss something that I already re-read in the first place. stubborn.gif

I could have sworn there was another topic on this already. blink.gif

I use the Edit button a few times a day. Even though I look at the screen when I type, I don't register the typos even though Firefox underlines them for you. xD Then I have to go back and fix it.

Yeah, there's another topic on this: http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=169371

A mod can merge them if they deem the topics similar enough.

Eh, I edit my posts more and more often lately. Whenever I make a long post I'll read through it. Most of the times I catch my spelling mistakes while I'm typing the reply, so I hit my backspace button a ton, but I usually edit my posts when they're something important (mostly something in feedback, important topics backstage) because after I make my post something will hit me and I have to edit it in.

^ hahahaha laugh.gif When you would quote it 234567543 times and resize it each time, that made me laugh a little.

Anyways, I usually edit when I was to add more. I only fix typos on occasion.. heh
