Re: Do you ever

I never preview my posts, because until you mentioned it, I didn't know you could, haha! I do edit sometimes if I think a reply could come across in the wrong way, and also fix spelling, but I haven't changed my mind over posting something. I either reply or I don't.

Re: Do you ever

I'm always doing this. Sometimes quite a lengthy reply gets binned, for all sorts of reasons. It might be that I think "Oh lord, that'll put the cat among the pigeons", or else I realise that I actually have no evidence to back up my opinion and I can't be bothered looking for any so I just duck out

Then there are times when I bin my reply, but come back later and join in after all.

I wonder if I'll bin this? Hmm.....

Re: Do you ever

I often write replies to posts Ripple, and after reading them back think that it's not appropriate, too long or confusing... I usually post them anyway....
