But it's mostly, you know, actual editing. I don't like that the header line doesn't show up on the comment board, so I set it aside using paragraph markers instead. These only stick if you edit them in after the first posting. Same goes for adding images, and then resizing them, which sometimes takes more than one edit just by itself.
Also, composing in a tiny scrolling box is hard, and I don't see the whole thing until it's up. Often I move a paragraph around, or fix typos and HTML codes.
Generally speaking, this is all done within about two or three minutes of the first posting, but in this time I've done as many as eight or nine edits on complicated posts.
A lot of forum software allows you to "preview" a post and polish it up before actually submitting it. This one doesn't.
I do a lot of editing.
