i nevEr proofreed. I feel that whatever I type is gold, so I really don't have the means to check it. Sometimes I will press the spell check buttong for some extra Viz, but it doesn't really help me out.

I usually do a good job of proofing my posts. Mainly for spelling. Sometimes I miss something once in awhile (Especially when I post from my phone) but that's pretty rare.

Whenever I notice an issue like that, I got back and edit my post.

Yeah, I usually do. I usually do it while I am making the post. Since I use Google Chrome, Chrome will tell me when I have a spelling error, so I usually go back and fix it before I submit my posts.

I love to reread my posts before submitting them. The reason is, I tend to have broken thoughts when I'm in the process of posting, so I made a habit of rereading my posts first to make sure they make sense to more people than myself .

When I don't do that, you see a post that makes sense, but some of the structure is all over the place . And sometimes it's still all over the place regardless <.<.

I also love to reread my own posts after they are posted, if someone likes them . You are not alone, Bintsy and Eirinn.

I make a habit of making sure everything in my sentences are correct. Most importantly my punctuation and spelling. I scan it once while I am typing my post and then another time once my post is completed right before I submit it. 

It's a good habit to get into, not to mention it only takes a few seconds to do it. I also tend to go back and re-edit the structure of my text. It is often difficult for others to read large sections of text with no spaces in between, and I also break my paragraphs down because I usually address or discuss a different issue within each paragraph. 

I don't really re-read other people's posts unless it is something of interest to me, or if it captures my attention.

Yes, I always do.

It's important to me that I proofread my posts, no matter the browser (chrome of Firefox), so that people may understand them, b/c it rarely happens that I misspell words & don't proofread them.

Note to users here: it's important to reread & proofread any posts you make on VB before submitting them so people can understand them.

I do actually! Then I spell check it because who doesn't like a extra 5 viz?

Plus, proofreading is a very important skill, and a nice habit to have! Nothing wrong with making sure what you typed or written was correct. Both in spelling and grammar.

I always check my posts before I post them. I really don't like it if I make a huge mistake in my post and checking my post gives me a good feeling. I almost always use the spell check as well. Not only I get free Viz and CP, I also get to see if I made a small grammatical mistake or not.

I type extremely quickly and my thoughts rush through my head at light speed. While good for limited-time situations, this often results in numerous grammatical errors. Therefore, I always spell check and proofread my posts. For reviews, I also put them through Word so I can be positive they are completely devoid of errors.

Other than spelling check, I don't review my grammar. But for larger posts (reviews, guides), I copy/paste from Word so the quality is usually better. I mean, it's over 1.5k words; it needs be be a good read

I always try to proofread my posts and anything I write in general. Conversation is one thing, but the written portion is more permanent and there is a record of it, so it can be important to be more accurate and better understood. Although I pay more attention to work emails and writing than I do to posts on Vizzed.

I very rarely proofread my posts. I pretty much type very fast, so I usually just type what's on my mind and that's about it. I do try to double check my posts for spelling errors, though, so I do use the site spell check feature most of the time.

I generally almost always run my posts through spell check but I have this bad habit of not proof reading them until I've made the post often leading to me editing them several times, afterwards it happens even with my reviews. I suppose I should try to stop doing it.

Bintsy : I sometimes do it by mistake when typing things with my android. There's nothing wrong with proof checking though. You can never be too careful when it comes to stuff like this. Actually I think its pretty smart to do at times.

I've always been a pretty decent speller but that doesn't exclude me form making typos. I get a little OCD when it comes to posting somewhere at times. I have to just force myself to hit enter at some point. Then I still go back and find something I missed. Usually it's when I made a typo but it was still a word. Like recently I meant to write 'from' but instead it came out 'form' which didn't make any sense in the context. Only until after I posted an re-read it like an hour later did I discover my mistake. So yeah, I do proof read them. But no, it doesn't always do any good.

You're definitely not the only one on that. In the only 5 posts I actually have written I have proofread each 5 or 6 times looking for any spelling or grammatical mistakes.
