How often do you start to reply to a post or start a new post and then scrap it altogether?
I find I do this very often. Not sure if it is caused by a short attention span or if I suddenly feel what I am adding is inconsequential.

Anyone else start and then abort?

Yeah it happens. I'll think I have something to contribute, but once I see how it reads out, it seems to not need saying.

 

[Musicroxmysox]

Yea sometimes. Sometimes it's just not worth it say what you were gonna say.

If I scrapped every post that I felt was inconsequential, I'd never post.

 

[TklDuo-Ann]

Yep. I've done that a few times. Sometimes it's because I needed to vent something but after writing it out, I don't feel that others need to hear it. Other times it's because I decided that it was something I didn't really want to share. Usually, it's because I get interrupted and just pop off without finishing or submitting it.

Very rarely, and almost always it's in the P&R Forum.

Guilty, more often than I would like.

Twice.

I don't think anyone should feel that what they have to say might be not contributing. You'd be surprised at what people want to see or hear or give an opinion on. 🙂

POST MOAR!!!!!!!

Once in awhile - usually if I'm just too lazy to type it out - or I can't seem to organize my thoughts into what I wanna say.

And yet, Gribble, here you are. 😀

Just post what you want. As long as you're not being insulting or trying to bait anyone, anything contributed has it's value in some way.

If i can't insult and bait you,why should i bother? Opps,thread hijack in progress here.

I have refrained and/or erased, many times,
and I'm sure at least a few are thinking, Oh crap, I wish she had more often.... 😛
But oh well, unfortunately sometimes certain points need to be made, even if one's taking the unpopular perspective,
or at least it looks that way at 2am....

Of course, (further along) The Morning After I've also wished I'd "aborted" more than a few more times.... 🙄
---Or really, just phrased myself with more thought,
since, as Crystal noted, sometimes you never know who'll agree and feel better that you posted what you did, as well. Popular or not.
