Do you 'Preview Post' before submitting?

[achris]

I see a lot of 'errors' in posts that I would have thought would be seen by the author had he/she clicked 'Preview Post' before they submitted it.

Nope I'm probably one of the errors you have seen achris . But I do normally go and correct my errors after by self editing when needed if needed.

Errors? Do you mean like putting "commas" (') before and after words instead of "quotation" (") marks?

Re: Do you 'Preview Post' before submitting?

The sort of errors I'm talking about are words doubled doubled up or missed out, or a letter in a word that doesn't belong, like it's the one next to the intended letter on the keyboiard.

Cheers,

ok... now I'm with you.... They are not commas (,) they are single quote marks used to highlight words in text that are not spoken or written quotes by a speaker or author... satisfied?

I don't mind reading a post prior to it being edited or spellchecked, it tells me quite a bit about the person behind the post.

I do as bond-o, quick reply then post it. If it needs editing, then I do it. I check grammar and spelling when I am doing long posts. In quick replies like this I dont bother.
