Responding to both, actually. And yeah, proofread your post, or wait until you've looked up whatever it is you wanted. It's not like the thread is going anywhere.

He could have also been responding to the one before your post.

Oh, and why should he give users at least a few minutes of leeway to edit? It's not like writing a post is in realtime, so you shouldn't need to edit at all.

There is such a thing as jumping the trigger, but I do agree with the first point you made, much as Sirus has confirmed my original suspicion to be correct.

But is it jumping the trigger? Is there actually any set time that somebody's supposed to wait for to respond?

Besides that, how was he to know that you were going to edit? I've seen plenty of people who don't edit their mistakes. And I know I miss a lot of mistakes I make and missed that I sure would have liked a post to tell me about.

Also, I suggest not responding to any posts for a few minutes after you finish reading them for the day, to see what you are saying he should do. It's not exactly thrilling or exciting.

Regardless, I think I'm done arguing. I'm sure plenty of people don't care, and I have a feeling that I have a bad habit of arguing things into derailment. You can, of course, continue if you want.

Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Charging down the halls, came across a gas chamber with SCP-173 blocking my path. Made a run for it (keeping an eye on it, of course) *SNAP* "FUCK!!!".

Most unusually casual response to death I've had in a horror game. Not scared, but more in the sense of "Well, that didn't work.". It also turns out I had some of the gas blocking my vision; so that didn't help.

SCP: Containment Breach (v0.1)


EDIT:
Let's not forget, I tried to make the game as immersively scary for myself (low lighting, headphones, the works) as possible, and it got that kind of response from me. You may want someone like me for a horror game. Which reminds me, you may or may not also want me for any other kind of game/campaign, according to this list.

Did you remember to put a gas mask on, and to blink just before you open the door?

I was trying to kill the Eye of Cthulhu so I could get demonite ore for summoning the ultra slime (Obsidian's Mod).

I threw myself against the walls quite a few time.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

For some context, I got to the tombs, there is a room there which locks as soon as you enter(its a portcullis) with a ghost inside. I killed the ghost easily and he dropped a key. With that key I opened a room nearby which was a dead end(with a grave). I didn't know a way out so I just threw myself against the walls(you take damage that way) with a Leap ring and respawned next to my silver sapling(which was 4 levels above)

I'm a miner. Things go along quite well and I'm getting plenty of ore for equipment upgrades and sending to the station. Then, while following a vein of ore through a large asteroid, I stumble upon a strange room with a Christmas stocking hanging on the wall. I reach inside and pull out a BFG 9000! Thanks, Santa! Then I accidentally click on a nearby wall while holding it, completely blowing myself up.

Run around in city, turn a corner a bunch of zombie was waiting for me, skid on the other direction, about to be out of stamina, i jump on top of a car.

Take a breath and start slicing zombies one by one. "Heart sound going faster" I turn around BOOM!! A sploder zombie snuck up behind me....

Minecraft UI is very simple. There's only so many ways you can implement "simple" without copying something. We also gonna complain that it uses WASD?

Turns out it's a lot harder to solo kill a hundred highly trained soldiers than it seems at first.

My horse didn't really help when about 30 of those enemies were archers.
