    I usually edit to correct a spelling mistake, so it's never even worth commenting on. But I do it quite often.

    Many thanks Christmas!

    I dont really care to much for spelling, mainly ebcuase it's easly figured out words, like the one I made a few words ago, but If I want to add something, or subtract something I edit, and I dont give reasons. =o

    I do all the time. I'm the queen of typos. Like I'll think faster than I type so I end up going ahead of my self and leaving things out. Or I don't pay attention and hit enter before I'm ready. I also edit my "i"s because I always forget to capitlize them, a certain mod who starts with P and ends with sychotic(bet you can't guess), nagged me once for not doing it so, alas that's really what I edit.

    EDIT:forgot an I....

    I edit the majority of my posts because after I go over the post in my head I'll either be unhappy with what's there or want to add something else. I will not edit this post.

    Edit: OK fine, I did because I saw a mistake in the post. This is not a lame joke to coincide with the thread.

    I go back for spelling and grammatical errors sometimes, but those of you that have read my posts throughly enough know I don't do that very often.

    I tend to be indecisive about my smilies so sometimes I'll go back and change the smilie if I don't think I've depicted the right emotion.

    Because those are usually the only reasons I ever edit my posts, I tend not eo specify. There are exceptions though, such as when I'm posting in the FF forums and I've forgotton to say something about beating a certain boss or whatever.

    I rarely ever edit, as I check my spelling before I post, and then, if I do edit, I generally give a reason.

    I only really edit mine if there's a grammatical error or an open tag or something.

    I edit about 50%-75% of my posts for spelling or grammar errors. Soemtimes to reword or add things to them. Or take things away. If I write a reason it's never what I really mean.

    I'm usually unhappy with my posts, and I nearly always end up changing them.

    It's the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder kicking in.

    uninhabited, hostile and meaningless universe. Still, you've got to laugh, haven't you?"

    If I make a typo or word something badly, I will edit. I virtually never specify.

    I edit my posts more often than not. Mainly to fix spelling or to rephrase something
