Anyone else edit like all of their posts? I swear I've edited like 90% of my posts on TL. I always type it out, and my grammar is usually pretty solid while typing so I never bother to spell check or anything because I know my post will be more than coherent. However, I always re-read my post after I post it and there is usually something about the post I don't like. Either I capitalized some random word that shouldn't be or I forgot a capitalization, or I left out a sentence that helps convey my thought process better. Basically there is always something that irks me about my post and I have to edit it. Anyone else do this consistently?

Poll: Edit your posts too much?
(Vote): Yeah -_-
(Vote): No ^_^

EDIT: LOL I put "editing" instead of "edited" and had to edit another post.

Since English is not my mother tongue, I usually end up editing my post most of the time.

IMO, grammar is rubbish.

EDIT: See?

if you see my posts they usually have that last edit thing.

My personality is that when i say something i think how others would read it. And if i feel they might take it the wrong way i switch it. And sometimes if what i wrote its awkward or a big type than ill go fix things. Or if i wrote with spaces inbetween ill put them together. Also since ive been living in korea for awhile my english got a lot worse so i make mistakes with common spellings so need to fix them.

I do, haha.. But it's generally not a thing where I'm dissatisfied with my original posting, but I generally will write something and be completely happy with it, but after the fact I'll feel the urge to add more to the post, so I'll edit.

I always have to edit because I always proofread after I submit the post for some reason, and see the grammatical errors then. It's the same with college papers. I always print and find the errors afterwards when I'm skimming and end up wasting shittons of paper that way-_-

I''ve got a bad habit of quickly entering a post, proofreading it quickly once, and posting. only to read it again when it's embedded in the actual thread that i should've phrased something differently or something like that :x

Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't, I edit it if I made a screw up and only realized it after posting or if there's something I forgot to add.

I try to avoid the "Last edit" tag, so I use the following process:

Type intellectually edifying words for all to read.
Press Preview.
Increase edification.
Press Preview again.
Repeat until I can press Preview and read from top to bottom without finding anything I can improve.
Press Post.
I still edit my posts sometimes, but I find this process reduces my edit percentage.

I think I pressed Preview twenty times for this post. Preview is like a cloaked version of Edit.

I definitely edit around 90% of my posts. I have to try upgrading the cloaked edit.

Yep, I do this with like every post too, same reasons. I also tend to add something after re-reading to emphasize a point or address something that I forgot and realized while I re-read.

Somewhat of a perfectionist I guess.

Right now I'm trying really hard to make sure I got it all right so I don't have to edit this post, Lol.

edit- Ah fuck, >.< I think a lot of this post first, proof read after comes from the threat of random internet/computer crashes. Make sure you at least get the main point saved down before you go back and fix it so you don't have to rewrite it all.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)
