Default Do you edit your posts right after posting?

Happens to me ALL THE TIME ops: I press "Submit" button and realize that I said it wrong or forgot to put smiley in there or misspelled something or my fingers didnt listen to me so I wrote some brutal sentence and so on. Almost everytime I post Not that I type, check and then press "Submit" but posting and then editing.. smetimes 2-3 times ops:

It always happens to me... :roll: Sometimes it's difficult for me to find the perfect words and the right sentences to explain something in English...

I use the preview function, but sometimes also "edit" is needed
