Do you preview your responses before posting? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 96/100. deebak (388)   ranked 1,678 out of 32,613 in mylot.com5 months ago

Hi,

Did you note that two buttons during responding?

One is preview response and another is post response...

It is also applicable during posting comments as well as starting a new discussion... thumbup

Do you preview your posting before you actually post?

Yes, i do preview my discussions and responses before posting...
But probably not the comments i give to my responses received..
Share your opinions.. Happy lotting. thumbup

Most of the time i just hit the submit button, and do not bother with the preview button. but i do read my response over to make sure that it reads all right.

Hi dlr. That's what I also do aswell. I don't actually preview it but like you do, I will sometimes read it over a bit to make sure there aren't any bad spelling mistakes that I have made.


myLot reputation of 96/100. deebak (388)   ranked 1,678 out of 32,613 in mylot.com  5 months ago

Hi dlr,

It is tough to correct our mistakes while it is on the text box. The font is somewhat different in the text box than in the preview. So, i sometimes use to preview my response or discussions whenever have more than 6 lines. Yes, i accept that when i start or response discussions in below 6 lines i won't preview and straight away click the post.
But i never did the preview for my comments even though it is an essay like this. lol

Cheers,thumbup
Happy lotting. thumbup

I used to preview my responses but that took a lot more time so sometimes I just scan what I wrote over again for grammar and spelling and sometimes I just post. Its just for fun so I don't take it too seriously.


myLot reputation of 90/100. pweety_princess (1725)   ranked 966 out of 32,613 in mylot.com  5 months ago

I also scan for my spelling mistakes, as I have a red line under it that tells me if I have made a mistake.=) Even if I do make a little mistake after I post, like you said, mylot is for fun and shouldn't be taken too seriously.=)

I do preview my submissions before doing it in most of the cases. But some time, I used to fail to so. The main reason for my review is that I am not good at typing and I will type with lots of spell errors.For this reason, I used to check for spell errors before submitting them.If we have edit option then it will be much helpful to the members who are like me,poor in typing.As there is not option, the only possible thing that we can do is checking them well before submitting.


myLot reputation of 96/100. deebak (388)   ranked 1,678 out of 32,613 in mylot.com  5 months ago

Hi hmrk,

Yes, there are may typing error i got here too. We can give comments for typing error mistakes for the responses and comments we give. But we cannot do that in starting the discussions.
So, it is good to preview our discussion before submitting it.

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Happy lotting.

no i dont do that
i always click submit as soon as i finshed typing


myLot reputation of 90/100. pweety_princess (1725)   ranked 966 out of 32,613 in mylot.com  5 months ago

That is exactly what I do aswell.=) I think the majority of mylot just post there response and not check it as it saves them time, and alot of people like me, might already have a spell checker thing installed on there browser, so it would tell them if they made a mistake. thumbup


myLot reputation of 96/100. deebak (388)   ranked 1,678 out of 32,613 in mylot.com  5 months ago

Hi venkittaraman,

I don't think you are the only person who don't preview, even i too didn't preview for my discussions. I only doing it for past 4 or 5 days i think as i find many typological errors in my discussions which some times confuse others.

Thanks for your comments,

Cheers,thumbup

Yes, I note that two button. The first time I join in mylot, I always hit preview button for every response I made, but now, not anymore,,hehe.. My internet connection is slow and it takes a quiet long time. I think better I type as fast as possible then notice some words that have red underline and correct it. But sometimes it didn't work, like if I wanna type "too" but I type "to", there's no red underline.. hah, but I think people who read it will understand that typo..


myLot reputation of 96/100. deebak (388)   ranked 1,678 out of 32,613 in mylot.com  5 months ago

Hi chrysanTflower,

Nice to see you again. Yes, people do understand our simple typos.
We don't need to preview every time.
But i think we should do when starting a discussion as we usually describe in long paragraphs.
Thanksfor sharing your opinions,

Cheers,thumbup
Happy lotting. thumbup


myLot reputation of 99/100. ChrysanTflower (1147)   ranked 1,985 out of 32,613 in mylot.com  5 months ago

Yes, it needed when we post our discussion.. and I notice something new from you,, type your comment and discussion with turn on B (bold).. why? it's okay and nice to see it though..


myLot reputation of 96/100. deebak (388)   ranked 1,678 out of 32,613 in mylot.com  5 months ago

Hi chrysanTflower,

Yes, there is something new in my commenting.
I found it little easier to read just from a key points from a long description.Also it is looking good as well.
You too can have a try at this.
This is really good looking.
Thanks for your reply.

I actually don't preview my post before posting it on mylot. I just post up whatever I want to post, and then I will look at my post and I will know if I have made a spelling mistake, because it will be underlined in red for me, and then I would fix it up. I'd then press post response straight away.=)


myLot reputation of 96/100. deebak (388)   ranked 1,678 out of 32,613 in mylot.com  5 months ago

Hi pweety_princess,

Yes, i also see that underline in most of my posts. Even when i say myLot there is a underline in it. Some times i mistakenly type some words which is also a word like for 'two' i wrongly typed 'too' or 'to' like that. Even after previewing, i may find some errors too.
I saw your comments in my best response for one liner discussion. Really good.

Thanks for sharing your opinion,

Cheers,
Happy lotting.

8. myLot reputation of 78/100. abhi_bangal (956)   ranked 7,099 out of 32,613 in mylot.com   5 months ago

Yes. I have a habit of always reading from start to finish what I have written and only then do I post it. I mean I go through it again before finally clicking the last button after which I can't undo it. So I do it. Another reason for this is that, I don't want to pass over unnecessary and untrue information. That's all.


myLot reputation of 96/100. deebak (388)   ranked 1,678 out of 32,613 in mylot.com  5 months ago

Hi abhi_bangal,

What you doing now is a correct one. We should check our responses before we submitting them. Also, we need not to make unnecessary statements which is not appealing.
I'm really appreciate you to do this check before responding.

Cheers,
Happy lotting.

Hi Deebak,

I never preview my comment or response or posting new discussions. I will think a lot before posting something new here. I also do have some confidence there won't be anything wronglol. Moreover, its takes time to preview and then to respond or comment. I won't do that and never done that.... happy Happy Mylotting... Have a nice day... thumbup


myLot reputation of 96/100. deebak (388)   ranked 1,678 out of 32,613 in mylot.com  5 months ago

Wow.. I can smell how confidence you are in making those discussions and responses in those lines man..
Keep it up. thumbup

I don't really use the preview button before I post something. I use Mozilla Firefox and it catches any spelling mistakes for me as I type and underlines it in Red. So I am able to see it and correct it. It is quite handy.


myLot reputation of 96/100. deebak (388)   ranked 1,678 out of 32,613 in mylot.com  5 months ago

Hi chunijole,

me too using the mozilla firefox,
Some times we cannot see the red lines although we are typing wrong. Like i said in comments in some previous responses.

Thanks for your participation.

Cheers,thumbup
Happy lotting.
Have a nice day.
