Cautious Posting

[applesjck 5,603]

I’m not really cautious at all when it comes to posting, if I have a couple of errors in the post I can just edit it right after!

I'm cautious when posting anything anywhere. Even when chatting among family. I think it is a habit of mine.

Depends. If it's a serious topic than yes, if not obviously no. But all the same I always speak out what I needed to say without holding back.

I'm not really cautious when posting, but it depends - in Debate Symposium, I'm very cautious and read over my post multiple times.

Yes I'm cautious. It's rather easy to hurt someone's feelings without meaning to if you're careless...anywhere on the forum.

Debates I don't care much about feelings, only accuracy. You had better be prepared for mental involvement, and get your biases out of the way, because I'm charging horn first.

I don't do that a lot unless in some topics like in the debate pit where I gotta check that Im not writing nonsense.

[Stone Cold Steve Jobs 22,453]

I do sometimes avoid saying something I might regret and I try not to be too mean. I am not always successful but I want to be the best version of myself for everyone, and that version of me has no room for resentment.

Making a post in the Debate Symposium can take me at least an hour especially if I need to find and review information from my source(s) and I read over what I typed multiples times. But even then, I am sure the structure of my posts have much room for improvement.

Other forums, to a far lesser extent compared to above.

Forum games and lounge, probably minimal.

Not so much with posting but with emails I do. Like I will reread my work emails four or five times before I send them to my colleagues just because I want to make sure it makes sense.

I'm the same with mails. Important ones for my work I spend sometimes more time with proof reading than typing actually.

With posts on the forum .. In the beginning I was very cautious, especially because English is not my native language. With time I grew more relaxed about it, but I still do more than one  proofreading before I submit it.

I'm pretty cautious about posts and I don't even start topics of my own. I used to post topics on another pony site before I came here and often got a lot of abuse and disrespect for it, so I don't post my own threads anymore. But when I post replies to other pony's threads I use caution not to start arguments because there are always certain ponies who are itching for a fight, or to act offended even when common sense tell them offense is unintended. I hate walking on eggshells when I post but I prefer a peaceful existence when I come to the forums. So, keeping it acceptable for all ages and maturity levels is something I take time and effort to achieve. 

And now you've created a whole lot of great topics, Dreamy. 

 

I'm cautious sometimesbut not a whole hell of a lot.

........to the people who knows me... They know what my answer is

[Fluttershyfan94 5,744]

Of course especially when it comes to emails but also in general. I've posted couple of topics on here and many more posts, I do post cautiously of course but that does take away from the fun that can be had on forums. They're meant to be silly in a way, not serious I mean it's a pony forum after all taking yourself too seriously would go against the shows well lack of it. I believe it is meant to be fun and entertaining to both read and write on these forums that is.

I usually read over every post once or twice just to make sure that it makes sense and reads easily to others.
