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?

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.
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.
Do you revise before submitting a comment?
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 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.
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.

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.
