read/edit

In writing, or especially in typing, when you read over something you've already written and make modifications as you go. For example, you read "happy, joyful, optimistic" and change it to "happy, joyful, and optimistic." Read/editing is usually done in a casual situation, like a Facebook message to a friend, but can also apply to more serious situations, like your college application.
Martha was nervous about the message her text would send, so she spent a minute read/editing it.

read description

An easy way on eBay to say that whatever item you're selling is absolute dogshit, or has some sort of overwhelmingly huge flaw that would render it useless. e.g. "iPhone XR good condition READ DESCRIPTION" and in description, "BAD ESN" (this means you can't activate it, it's probably stolen).

Or a good one, is when they are retail demos and have SCREEN BURN-IN. Who the fuck wants to look at a burnt-in image?

Stolen shit usually is "read description" since they probably ripped it out of someone's hand.

Often, the seller will say, "re4d", "l00k", or some other bullshit to prevent you from subtracting their trash listing from the results. Also, same applies for "icl0ud", "cr4cked", and other things like "acc0unt". Really disingenuous stuff. Report them whenever you see them.

reading game

The Reading Game is a question and answer game built by you, the quality of the questions and the contents of the quizzes is up to the users. It is a Moodle module to be released later this year 2013. It leverages game mechanics to make the participants' interactions with the game, fun. The quality of the questions and quizzes is up to the participants who receive points for their efforts in both asking and answering questions. Participants can also rate questions, allowing them to directly impact the contents of review quizzes, while also activating a secondary reward called 'stars' for those participants whose questions are deemed outstanding by their peers. The acts in the game form the basis of continuous formative feedback and meta-cognition.
What is the reading game?
a. a question and answer game built by you and your cohort of learners
b. is inspired by medieval scholarship of reading books and questioning texts
c. is based on Socratic dialogues between teacher and learner
d* a lot of fun to play because of the above choices
