are you tempted?

Is it just me, or do you write out a "new thread", spend ages on it, bare your soul ...... and then hit the delete button? Too scared to mention your innermost thoughts and fears, prejuidices and ideas and such in a public forum..... or do you just post it anyway?

31 Aug 2005

not on your own there... have written many threads like that and then "cancel" at the end of it all.....
kiss

31 Aug 2005

er

: :?: :?: :?: no biggrin

31 Aug 2005

I don't do it so much with new threads (though perhaps I should), but I quite often do that when replying to posts, normally when I get to the end of what I've written and decide to go back and re-read what other people have written to make sure I didn't misinterpret anything.

31 Aug 2005

It's not just you postie redface

I've hit the delete button on many occasions ....... I always think no-one would be interested in reading my thoughts

31 Aug 2005

Well to be honest I would never post on the forum my innermost thoughts and feelings.....far too personal but each to their own.
Come on then Postie........what do you want to tell us but cannot put into words????
you can tell me........no one else will be reading this!

31 Aug 2005

Oh I've started hundreds of threads .......... and then deleted confused

Just as bad with some posts - I write em, press submit, then imediately edit it a dozen times rolleyes

Or a dozen and one times :undecided:
Cos it just don't look right sometimes dunno

And then you get that silly writing at the bottom that tells everyone what a ditherer you are mad

31 Aug 2005

Either that or it takes me sooooooooooo long (because I get sidetracked) that I've moved on and can't remember what i was wanting to say in the first place, or why. dunno

When I feel like that I usually scribble it down on a piece of paper, stuff it in an envelope, put my name and a stamp on it, then put it one of them red things in the street .. the Post Office then gets rid of it for me.... hehehe

Cant say I am mate.

31 Aug 2005

Well to be honest i..erm... i er...er.. oh christ..delete delete!!

1 Sep 2005

lol

Don't start too many threads but I have deleted unsubmitted threads and posts. Sometimes it annoys me that I've wasted the time - other times I'm thankful that I'm such a slow typist that I've managed to cool off before I press submit (yeah and sometimes I don't cool off before I Submit - I know!)
I'm with Missy on the editing thing. I hate editing my posts - consider I've failed if I do - but sometimes it's done for the best of reasons wink

:shock:

Most men wear aftershave but according to a friend of mine you can buy male perfume.
I don't know what the difference is and which most men use dunno

You too huh? lol

Yeah, all the time. Well, sort of. Not necessarily soul-baring, I don't have a problem with that... what I tend to do is write a few leather bound volumes worth of the gospel according to Ice, ask myself "could this cause a big ruckuss?"..... and if the answer's no, I hit the back button. rotflmao

1 Sep 2005

i wrote 4 replies....deleted first 3....
no i dont think im indecisive ..well maybe a bit...sometimes

1 Sep 2005

Neil has a few folders with un-posted and deleted threads and replies! lol

I only have a handful and I do tend to delete a post if it is the last one on the thread when it drops to page two! :lol:
redface

My secret is revealed! :lol:
Gem. x

Yes postie, I delete stuff after I've had a chance to read it through. I don't delete thread topics cos I don't start many of them, but I do delete a lot of thread posts that look a bit iffy when I've finished them, normally because they might be a bit near the knuckle and land me with an argument that I can do without. I also delete a lot where I've wanted to coment, but simply can't find the right words to get across what I mean easily.

1 Sep 2005

Got to admit that Ive not start many threads at all, but answered a few, and yes would have answered a lot more but I write them, pour out my thoughts, anger whatever Im feeling right there and then, and then press delete.
Why ?
1. Dont want to look stupid
2. Already feel better cause Ive written it down, and thats enough

1 Sep 2005

i tend to get side tracked from what i start off saying, which can end up being very confusing, but i go ahead and post it anyhow, in the hope that someone might understand.
thats why ill usully just write a short bit, less confusing lol

1 Sep 2005

Never really had a problem.
Just find the more i drink the more i waffle on...
Cheers... Down the hatch... drinkies

I have no idea what mines called, as the label fell off ages ago. But it was from a French lass i knew who lived in Grasse, the perfume producing area of France.. it's not a "brand" but it's very nice... I'll be gutted when it runs out!
C'mon Dawn , start that thread!
