to think mn should have a 30 sec edit function

[southeastastra]

please

Seconded

you have a 'preview message' option, why not just use that?

Nowt wrong avec Preview Message

But am impressed ye asked nicely

Most folks go Oi HQ SORT IT

['computer says No' face]

Ain't nobody got time to use preview.

I agree- I never use the preview and only spot the mistakes afterwards. I know I could use it,but I don't want to.

MN don't do up to date.

[time warp]

Takes less than 30 seconds.

Just saying.

i never use preview either and wouldn't really post if i though too hard about it. spelling and grammar mistakes are annoying though and i would like the opportunity to correct if possible, so 30 seconds would be enough time to do that.

It''s when you use the wrong there ,their ,they're and you know the pedants are teeth itching and starting threads about you that makes you cringe.

Hmmpf. I'd need a 3 minute edit with my phone. It's throwing teenage strops these days and ignores me.

no one's perfect.

Yes - given I just posted about my DH BF//FF'ing himself when obviously I meant DH FF DS

Wow - got a 3x MN acronym there

You could add a request to the site stuff section?

Nonsense MrsFuzzy MN children are perfect, at least compared to other children!

But you can't edit life southeast

You don't get to preview on the app

It's not so much preview.

It's more I always think of something to add a few seconds afteri hit send and have to post a second time

And then look like a dozy twat

You don't get to preview on the app

I do! I can also post pictures! Not quite sure why I can and others can't!

I agree a 30 second edit button would be handy. I don't find this site very user friendly. The ap is awful and I find the site very slow to load on any laptop/pc I use.

I think an "agree" or "like" button would be good so the message could say "x-number of people agree with you" :)

Not wanting the reverse, so you would see "x-number of people think you're a twat" of course

I don't see why you can't edit your own posts either. Other forums have that tool.

No, no a thousand times no.

Thankfully MN see it the same way

...and I say that as a new ipad owner, so plenty of mistakes and I definitely don't preview my posts.

I read it as men need a 30 second edit

No, no a million times no to 'like'.

Thankfully MN see that the same way too

It's a chat forum, not a mindless 'click' forum!

Other sites have lots of things we don't want here, it's why we like it here! As you say, plenty of other sites if you like those things
