I do it all the time. I type away, read it back then think, actually, I don't know what I'm talking about so I delete it.

What's weird is, I was thinking of asking this question yesterday but I didn't even get as far as typing it.

So you deleted it in your mind before you thought of it?

Sometimes, l type a post and then delete it.

I do edit if, l make a mistake in my spelling, for punctuation or if lt doesn’t read right!

What l want to know is...

When you send your post, does it go through Admin to be checked and it is ok’d?
If you edit that post, does it go through Admin again for clearance?
If you edit it again, does it go through to Admin for the third time?

It’s just something, l’ve always wondered?

I don't think it goes through admin Art, that's why we get all the kitchen sales and porn links. When a post goes through mods, there is normally a delay. I may be wrong of course.

Doubt it. When I post it goes on here immediately.
