I'm slightly different, I tend to write up the reply and then usually think, the person/time isn't worth it and just whack cancel.

Same. Do it with texts, and emails as well though. Especially if arguing with someone. I don't like to loose, so I can write up to ten different messages and delete them before deciding on one to go with.

I think I write a post then cancel it 90% of the time, I've probably been on here everyday since I signed up (not to mention lurking beforehand!)... but you wouldn't guess it from my post count!

I do this too

but mostly because I'm enjoying the thread (yup, even this one. I don't get out much frown ) and often I seem to come in at the "end of life" phase and kill them dead

Only done it a few times during slightly heated arguements (with the same 3 PHers), and usually because I re-read what I've typed and think "why am I lowering myself to their level. I am better than that"

I've also done the same with emails and texts too.

I do this fairly often when there is a heated discussion/argument. I get so far into typing a reply and think fk it, I cant be arsed or decide no one gives a st about my opinion.

Almost did the same with this one but thought I should make an effort for once.

I've stopped responding or even posting now to be honest (apart from this) as the forums seem to be full of people who just rip people apart for spelling, opinions, grammar.

It seems to be a recognized part of the banter but seems to achieve nothing but page after page of quotes of people arguing about syntax etc instead of the OP's original point.

I have written loads of replies but then hit cancel as I just can't be bothered with any "backlash"

Shame really. Now more of a lurker than a contibutor

Ahem. hehe

Don't be like that, just ignore them and enjoy it. Once you realize wink it's nothing personal you'll enjoy the PH life. As it is a life.
