Typoes.

How often do you make typos? Do you ever post a message and you forget to proofread everything, and then find yourself editing typos? Or do you proofread and then just conveniently miss one?

I typo quite a bit, and I notice that, more than ever, I'm using it in my posts, and even in chat a few times. There is also the rare occasion where I just skip a typo afer proofreading, but normally I do spot them all. It's not just resricted to normal typos; I sometimes leave words out of my posts quite often at as well. D=

I tend to typo a lot in the chat room. Usually I'm not proofreading what I type in there. On the forums I catch most of my typos, though they still slip through from time to time. If I notice one I'll always edit it.

I type differently in forums and in chats xD AIM, IRC, I don't care if I typo and I don't capitalize or punctuate much either ;) In forums, it's not even watching out more for them, it's just habit :p

I proofread everything I write. I tend to be pretty careful. Even in chat.

i never typo.

*I. :p.

I make a reasonable number of typos from rushing my typing, but I always go back and correct them, as best I can. Chatting, I don't watch as much, unless it's really bad. If I typo in a post and don't notice until after I submit it, I'll go back and edit it. Sometime's I'm fast enough to escape the embarassment of the "Last Edited" tag :p.

Preview Post helps a lot, too.

mE ne vaR ma ker- mnsit ake s!.

you dont knwo who you're asking do you

I don't make too many mistakes.

I'll only edit a post if I don't like the way I've described something.

As much as it annoys me i always do a typo in IM's! But i do get to correct myself at times...so its not too bad

I make mistakes while typing from time to time...it happens.

In chat it's generally a lot worse though. :p

I usually only notice my typos once I've posted the message. I go back and edit them, though. Usually they're either formatting errors or extra letters.

I'm always putting "your" and "you're" in the wrong context. Maybe I should take a course.
As for other typos, well they crop up now and then

I type a lot in MSN. I'm always correcting myself there. I typo quite a bit in here too, but I usually edit my posts a few times and catch them.

Every now and then, I'm typing and I actually drop words out of my sentence, which is embarassing. That's when I edit. If I make a typo, I catch it before I post, 90% of the time.

wat r u talkin aboot typoes i nevar mak typeos :D

EDIT: What are you talking about, I never make typos!

xD! That usually happens.

Mostly I seem to hit the ; key instead of the ' key a lot of them time and have words like "can;t" etc.

The semi-colon thing BLT just posted about should be my trademark typo, I swear! xD

yes, all the time, especially using MSN. i usually just do the *correct spelling, after the message is sent.

For some reason my index finger seems to beat my middle finger to its key when typing '-ing', meaning I sometimes type 'gonig' or 'donig'. I tend to catch my mistakes before sending the message though, so few of these typos actually find their way on to the boards.

All the time. I just keep going and then change them at the end. I tend to do the usual. Type too quickly, hit the wrong key, or in the wrong order, or similar. I also tend to cock up my punctuation or hit# before I hit enter... or take my finger off the shift key before I've actually hit the letter. that sorta thing.

Yeah, every now and then. I usually don't proofread my posts until after I've posted it, so then I end up having to use the edit/delete function. :greenie:

all the time if not always.

Never.

whenever i type to fats i alwasy make miustakes

lol, I look at the keyboard when I type, so I make tons of errors. But, convineintly enough, I automaticly fix the errors in my mind and they pulsate to my fingers... Odd.... O_o

I really hate spelling and grammar errors. Little mistakes don't bother me that much, but when people write without bothering to form sentences, it just turns into an aggravating, extremely jumbled mass of words. In chat, I don't care that much, but on forums, anything without capital letters or puncuation bugs the crap out of me.

I make typos but I try and go back and fix them. Unless I'm talking to MecaKane, because I don't care if I typo to him >:O

I hate typoes.:)

Edit: I DIDN'T MAK A TYPO JUST NOW!!!
