Sure do but only when I need to "Edit" ;)
-
Yes, I do at times. Sometimes I write an answer quickly and forget to check for typos. Also, I like to make sure my response is as clear as possible so as to not be misconstrued so sometimes I will go back and edit.
-
not only do I use the edit feature I look for my spellchecker to rewrite. And I sometimes thing of a better way to write what I just said. Thank goodness for that edit feature!
-
very rarely but I have used it.
-
The edit feature saves my bacon from time to time. Firefox has built in spell checking. It underlines misspelled words in red, and right clicking brings up a list of similar words. But all too often I click to quick, and end up changing "spel check" to "spiel check" or some such nonsense.
-
Quite a bit!! It seems I always think of something else to type after I have hit SUBMIT
-
I am horrible about that. For any of my medium to long answers you can expect a good 5-6 edits. I am rather persnickety with my spelling and grammar and will edit until it is right. Also I tend to forget things. I have one answer that I have probably edited 15 times now because I am writing a guide to how to handle trolls and I update as needed.
-
actually alot. when i go on a rant i dont notice that i spell things wrong or leave out a word until after its posted (because i always go back and read them... i do this with texts too) and then i change it.
-
I hardly used it 2/3 times in the beginning.
-
not really, but sometimes:)
-
not often, but as I type fast...I sometime make mistakes I don't realise until the question is on board.....I then correct embarrassing ones.....
-
Every now and then.
-
Not really very often. Once in a while I catch and correct a typo, but mostly I use it when attaching photos and videos to my answers. Very often they don't all load the first time around and I have to open the edit feature to reload them. :)
-
I do..all the time. More now than before. It is always because I've misspelled something or left a word out. My brain travels at warp speed..my fingers do not. Even when I proof-read several times before I hit "submit" I can sometimes find things I overlooked. I never change anything else though. I don't ever read other people's answers before I post mine either...it will change what I write and since I assume the questioner wants to know what I think, I can't read what others think first and then write what I think because that will influence me one way or the other. :)
-
I do. I use it the most on my answers because there's no time limit for editing them. I also use it quite a bit on my questions and comments.
-
Few times!
-
Yes,after I look over my spelling and re read the post,sometimes I like to do a few changes.
-
When I misread the question and re-read it after I answered :-/
-
If I realize I have made a mistake in spelling I will edit.
-
I don't know what is considered a lot. I use edit about ½ of the time. I use Firefox and its spell check catches most my misspellings. After seeing what I've posted, I'll think of a better way to word something, or I'll realize I left something out. Occasionally, I'll realize I said more than I needed to or strayed too far from the question, so I'll go back and remove excess verbiage.
-
Not a lot... just a few times.
-
Nevr I never return I check as I go and say it as it comes.
-
I do if I see a spelling mistake and if the images I tried to upload didn't work, a glitch that I have been experiencing on AB for over a year now.
-
Yes I do! it seems my mind is faster than my fingers
-
Yes quite a lot because I am a dreadful typist.
-
When I miss spell or didn't write what I wanted to.
-
Guilty as charge. :(
-
Yeah. I always feel the need to reread and fine-tune an answer if it's more than just a few words long.
