Who thinks yahoo should get rid of the preview when ansering ?'s?

It takes to much time for nothing! i mean, when answering a question w. 2-4 answers already then you take time to answer and all of the sudden your 10-15!

Update:

Update 2:

    i think they do need to take it away because if ppl dont have a good internet signal to answer the question, it just takes them a LONG time to get from the answer to preview! what u need to do is send a email to yahoo answers! i can do it if u want but only if you want me to! if u do, choose me as best answer and tell me!

    I do, since after submitting the answer we can still go back and edit it... therefore it's pointless, and yes, it does take up time. Time is the measurement of life. That's all we got and we can't afford to lose a millisecond unless we want to(but in this case we don't have many choices)

    & I guess enough people have to agree and somehow contact Y!A staff members to suggest it and probably have to wait a long time to get even a reply.

    I do! The whole preview thing just slows me down. Like, hello, I KNOW what I'm writing, I don't need to see it in the proper format! And plus, when I think I'm answering a question with few answers it turns out to be a lot, and that really sucks.

    I think you should have the option to preview, other sites I've been on have, post or preview. Then if you write a long response and want to review you can. If not you're golden. =]

    Yes although i only noticed this afternoon, also if you look there is submit in Blue and a preview on while/grey. Jack L.

    Yes. They have an edit link for after you post, there is no need of the preview page.

    Preview allows for spell check, needed for some 'ansering'. Also the word 'to' or 'too' could be selected to make sense.

    I know it's annoying....

    When I opened this Q there was no answers wonder if there will be any by the time I preview it

  • 1 decade ago

    It is really annoying. I personally like to look over my answer before I post it, but there is an edit button. What would be nice is having the ability to edit questions asked instead of adding detail. For perfectionist like me, I like correcting the mistakes I make. >.>

    I soooo agree with you. Either take away the preview, or take away the option to edit afterwards.
