When you create threads how often do you hit the preview button?

For me I only use it when I post links.

If I'm posting a long thread or a reply with a lot of quotes and links, I'll preview it.

I still end up editing to fix things anyway. >.<

Every time I make a thread. Only sometimes (especially when I post a lot of links) when I post.

Inappropriate. Went a little to far with the butt hole tearing.

Same, although if I'm doing something in a different tab and stop posting halfway, I might preview the post when I'm done writing.

My internet can be a real itch sometimes, so I do it just in case.

edit: sometimes when I am making a thread

I usually only do it if my thread is especially long, or if it contains any extra formatting.

Usually pretty rarely... I always read my post after posting it and if I notice any formatting errors I'll just edit it. I will on very rare occasions if I'm posting to a serious discussion thread and it happens to be a very long post with lots of quotes, links, and other forms of complicated formatting, possibly take a look at the preview.

But like I said, I usually just hit edit afterwards if I happened to screw something up.

If it's a long post, which isn't very often for me, I always preview it.

I preview every single time.

Hi there! be sure to click that homepage link!

If there's a long post I need to check, I'll do it.

The Edit timestamp is quite annoying, as it's the same size as the text, same colour of the text, and perhaps too noticeable.

Check out my Soundcloud account to hear some of my music.
Here's my twitter, in the off-chance you want that too.

I'm gonna finish it. Just like Jigga did to the pyramid.

I don't need to because I don't make mistakes, therefore I know my post will be flawless of errors.

  • 10.04.2012 12:05 AM PDT

Who am I?

mah twitter

Every time, looks really unprofessional if the OP has been edited.

This is more or less what I was trying to say but couldn't find the words.

Citizens of Me! The cruelty of the old Pharaoh is a thing of the past. Let a whole new wave of cruelty wash over this lazy land.

Hear the word of Pharaoh. Build unto me a statue of ridiculous proportion. One billion cubits in height......that I might be remembered for all eternity!

And be quick about it!

I use it whenever I'm making a complicated post, such as one with lots of links or quotes.

  • 10.04.2012 2:16 AM PDT

Never. My posts are always perfect.
