Do you do a preview before submitting your discussion?

Today I make a mistake when I submit my reply on this mylot. Instead of "can not continue", I just put "continue" :(. That's make a totally opposite for what I mean. Since we can not edit what ever we have submitted, I just hope that my friend understand what I mean :). Do you ever do the same?

Usually I preview before submitting. But sometimes I will be in a hurry and confidently submit it and later find out that there is some spelling mistake or any other mistake. But what to do? Too late. Cannot edit it. But I feel there should be an opportunity to correct the mistake.

hi Buchi_bulla, Good to you if you do preview before submitting. You are not as lazy as me. I just read back what ever I wrote and submit. Sometime (like yesterday), I miss the big point. About the correcting function button, I think there will be pros and cons here. We should take a deep conversation before putting that button here. Thank you for your comment and happy mylotting.

I rarely preview, unless it's a political discussion or something else where I really don't want to be misunderstood. Most people are smart enough to understand typos and what people are trying to say. I'm sure your friends understand what you meant to say. Plus, you could always go back and post again beneath your original post so as to clear up misunderstandings.

hi beautyqueen26, I agree with you. I think most of us here did not use that preview button. I never join the deep conversation where every mistake is count in mylot. Here, I join where I can make friend, have some fun and do some mistake LoL. Thank you for your comment and keep this topic alive. Happy myLotting and have a great day.

Good day, akuler! Well, I rarely use the preview function when posting a discussion, response or comment. I just make sure that my post is final before submitting it. When I found errors after posting it, I just post a comment for the corrections then laugh at it Anyway, the preview function is almost the same with the text box before posting except on the mylot code and the edit function. On the text box, it is ready to edit and the smileys are not formed. Happy mylotting and have a nice day!

Hi boogerman, You are right about that. I don't really know the function of this "preview comment" button. Why you want to preview something is exactly same with your text box here. Usually I just reread what I wrote before post a comment but I think yesterday is not my day LoL. I miss the point totally. I think maybe mylot should put more useful button to use rather the this preview button. But, mylot still the best. Happy to be here. Happy mylotting and have a great day.

Hi, Most of the time i do preview it before submitting as you cannot edit or delete. But sometimes i feel so lazy to read also that after writing i just press submit and then if something is wrong i have to post it again. Hence double work. I really hope we would get a edit or delete button as it will save our lot of time. But as you said Mylotters here are very nice. They will understand it friend. Don't worry about that. Well happy Mylotting.

hi suj123, Yeah. You are right about that. When we have something to do and/or not in the mood, we simply press the submit button without read back what we have written. Actually I hardly press that "preview comment". I just read back what I wrote. Just to make sure that I write it rightly. But, sometime I miss the mistake and today is the worse :(. Thank you for your comment and happy mylotting.

Hi voldrox, Me too. I don't see any point to use this preview button when you can read exactly what you can see at the text box here. I also hope he will understand what I mean. Thank you for your comment and hope to see you again. Happy mylotting and have a great day.
