Editing is a continuous process.

The number of times I edet is around 3 or even more times on average, sirst when beforeposting, again after posting after a reread to take any misspellings out than tree or more times to review readibility or add to the post when something comes to mind later. This is how it could look to me in different stages/ - 1'st stage.

This is how it could look to me in different stages, but often errors could be missed or purposefully kept in either being too lazy or when symptoms are bad enough to not notice or don't have the energy to change things.
- Stage 3

My answer remains the same, regardless of whether or not a preview is required for it to count as editing. I can't type out whole posts and then edit them -- my words don't come that fast/smoothly; I have to edit continuously as part of the "type" step.

Once or twice, depending on if there's anything I can clarify or if there's a typo. :lol:

Most of the time I don't edit them, though.

It honestly depends on the thread. If I'm writing a well-thought-out response, then I'll often go back and make additions or changes. If I'm just posting in a forum game in Off The Wall, then I'll only edit if my post wasn't valid in the first place.
