Do you preview your discussion before you post? I forget and have many typos!

I always forget to preview. I do try to reread. I guess I'm in such a rush and typing so fast that sometimes I drop letters. I really should preview the post before commenting. Do you usually preview before posting?

I do the same thing, and i never preview anything before i post. I have the spell check that checks my spelling, and i try to read it before i post but their are times that i miss things. and if i did preview it i would probably still miss stuff.

I always miss stuff. Then I read it back again after I posted and cringe. How did I miss that? Thanks for your comment.

I also done it before. But since I hardly create any discussion, I can reduce my mistake. But I always made a typos on my responses and/or comments. I rarely use the preview button. It will slow down my sending time. Since I had a bad internet connection, I try to reduce pages loading time. It is annoyed to see our posts have such typos and sometimes it make our point totally different from what we actually mean.

Sometimes I do but a lot of times I usally end up forgetting to. Then I dont realise all the typos untill ive made the post, its not fair that we dont have an edit button since im sure a lot of us make mistakes or would like to add on to our post once we see it I know I do.

No, I have never done something like making a preview of my post. Though, I know it allow the scope of typos, yet, members here can understand that. However, when I start a discussion, I, though again not always, see the preview of my discussion. The reason is obvious as discussion will be read by more people than responses and comments and then only a well written discussion can fetch optimum number of responses..

when u type u r bound to make typos..but if u genuinely if other person catches it or not u may feel like previewing the content...generally the typos we make can be easily identified n understood by the reader..so i dont care much for the typos..still its better to be error free..

I always correct my written response and so there come's no need to use the preview respone option.Since while writing errors are spotted by it becomes much easier to work. The post response is the only thing i use after writing the response.hapy lotting by the way.

I do try to read what I had typewritten, but sometimes there are still errors. I don't preview the post I make, that is why there are errors in spelling and grammar. What I don't like in some discussions or posts are the abbreviations just like sending an SMS.

No friend, i don't do that.I think its a mere wastage of time.i used to read twice the discussion before posting.So it helps me to reduce the errors.Yeah of course previewing is good habit,for those who wanna see the appearance of their discussion in Mylot pages before posting the discussion.

No I don't check or preview post. Maybe I should, but I get in such a hurry to post since my time to just play on the computer is limited. I try to read my posts over but I have seen things that I have written that look like a 2nd grader wrote them!
