Ask Hanners a question on Formspring

<< < (5/6) > >>

jwhouk:
And, some of us don't have the "warning" set up.

Like, for instance, me.

Is it cold in here?:
I can imagine several ways to work the Q&A from Formspring into a series of strips, but they're all kind of lame. Fortunately the strip is in better hands than mine.

Is it really that much of a problem? I got back and edit my posts all the time, generally because I have made a spelling mistake, and it takes maybe thirty seconds.

You're pretty much right about bandwidth, I guess - I tend to be a bit anal about it, because of my background in programming computers to do useful things with 1k of memory...   

The aesthetics - well, quite apart from the appearance on the screen, it feels to me a bit like having a conversation with someone who repeats back everything I say before replying. 

Most forums I visit are much stricter about it than I want to be, so maybe I'll bite my tongue for a bit!

On the other hand, most of the other forums I frequent will probate you for failing to quote who you're replying to, so there is that as well.
