While we type our comment we commit some typos. This usually ruins the impact of our comment. Do you prefer to go through the comment, make corrections and then submit it or you just submit it without revision and correction?

I don't revise normally. Spelling mistakes are checked by computer. 

Some time I revised, it is because of checking spelling mistakes. My posture while I am working is not right one. I am seating on bed and so some time spelling mistake is possible.

It entirely depends on the circumstsnce,because when I am posting in a hurry , I just type out what I have to convey snd post it, many a times with mistakes. Later I edit snd correct it. However, when I have more time, I go through what I have written, make corrections if any and then post it.

 

Yes, time is a big factor. I always feel that we should revise and then submit but if at all we are in a hurry then later we must revise and edit. It's not just spelling or grammar error but sometimes the whole word is used wrongly and the sentence sounds meaningless.    

It depends, sometimes I do revise if time permits. I was not aware that its possible to edit the post. I shall edit my posts in case of any spelling mistakes..

Definitely revision helps. In my case, be it a thread or an article, before clicking OK button I revise. If time is short, I wait for some time, before submitting, All in all, I would emphatically say that Revision is a mandatory

Edit button is available at the bottom of the thread space.

I normally respond only when I have something to say, so I respond spontaneously which is how I prefer it rather than make too many changes and corrections which would take away the essence of what I want to convey. Other people may not notice it but for me it makes a difference to read a carefully crafted text and one that was written on the spur of the moment..I make corrections if needed for spellings and structures only.

 

I revise. Its a necessity for me. Because I'm a single finger typist.  Though I have a clear idea what to put on the paper , I fumble while typing. In this process, I know, every likelihood is there for committing typos. Owing to this reason, I have to revise.

 

yeah i revise before submitting the comment and whereas about spellings, spellings are checked by the computer  

I revise before submitting.It ensures that I'm posting what I intended to say, spell checks etc

I too make corrections of spelling mistakes and syntax errors. I comment what I feel so usually, I do not change the whole content. The topic which I have raised here is basically regarding the errors in spelling and grammar. What I feel is we need to revise spelling and grammar then only it makes for an interesting comment or a write-up.   

I normally revise and correct my comment if needed but in any case I do read it before hitting enter so as not to make too many mistakes. However, when in hurry sometimes, some mistakes do occur, then I have to edit it later.

Before posting a comment I used to check it again to ensure that there is no spelling or grammar mistake and it conveys the right message what I have in my mind. However when I read the post later, sometimes I feel that something is missing, or it should have written in a different way, etc; but I do not edit the content once it is posted, except for some serious spelling mistakes. 

Revising whatever a member submits be it a Post or a an article is very essential. Literally Revision means " to see again." I do it. Because of neglecting revision earlier, I felt uncomfortable when some members suggested to Check the spelling in the heading of the Post .Revising is essential for all of us.

 

There is nothing to be uncomfortable because mistakes may occur by anyone. Yes, it is always beneficial to revise but sometimes after revision also we fail to recognise the error so we need to be very alert. 

Definitely committing  spelling mistakes either in the Topic postings or Articles, makes me think that I should have taken some little care to avoid these small  mistakes which create bad impression on the Members.

 

Certain mistakes that slip only make us look real esp. in the forum where ideas should matter and not spellings.

Fine but it should not be too many. If so then the impact of the comment loose its grip.

But it is essential to edit the post, even after posting. I do it. Because Posting a thread with spelling mistakes will definitely confuse the Forum readers.

 

This post is a good example of how to stretch a post for which I am also responsible.
