Not always, sometimes you are posting at the same time as someone else and the quicker fingers post first.

On average I type 70 words a min so I probably get in there a bit quicker!

Really now, I can practice and practice but I just cannot get it any faster.
It's one of my co-morbidities.... with being on the spectrum.

So needed to catch up on this post!! ! It makes me laugh and feel happy to read. Plus i can not learn to type "properly" but can do about 40 wpm with the 4-6 fingers i usually use. But... only if i already know what i want to say!

Usually I can type pretty quickly. I did have "touch typing" courses back in middle school, but instead of limiting certain fingers to certain keys, I sometimes jump around to which ever finger is closest to the key in question.

X marks the spot in most places, but here it's a real nuisance.

yet I have always been an excellent typist, I make very few errors. However, I hear that they do not teach typing in school anymore. I don't know if that is true or not but such a shame, everyone should know how.
