The SUBMIT button scares me.

Neolander

Hi,

After some time spent using NNF, the "SUBMIT" button still feels extremely scary to me, like an irreversible and unforgiving action. It could be an intended behaviour, but if not here's why.

On most written supports, I write things as the thought comes, then read them more carefully in the middle of the rest and edit/correct if needed. However, it has been made pretty clear by Kroc that no edit function will come to NNF. I still think that the invoked reason was pretty weak, but a no is a no, so I had to think how I can bring myself to do without my editing addiction. Appending simply isn't enough, while copy+delete+scroll+paste+type+post is quite complicated, dirty, and does not work so well in a number of situations.

I've then thought that this could be an occasion to finally try and drop my hot-blooded writing habits, and learn to proofread things *before* I submit them. It would solve a number of problem, like people who have seen the old version and replied to it before I edited some major changes in it.

What do you think about it : should post preview come to NNF ?
