Ok we have all done the typos thing,but I have been a memebr for over a year and I have seen many great changes here. But I would like to see a delete button,so if I post something that gets no responses after a while I can just get rid of it,or I post something and it came out wrong.
At the other site I use simular to this they have an edit button and a delete button which I use alot lol.
Would you like to see a delete button here? Or an edit button?

hi,
I hope that myLot have the delete button because sometimes, I accidentally started a discussions and forget to upload the picture for it. If there is a delete button, I can delete the accidentally started discussions and start another one with picture.
If there is an edit button is great too. I can edit the discussions I started in case there are typing errors.

Yes but only the person who posts the topic should have the right the delete it, other wise anybody can misuse it.
What do you say?

Oh Yes I totally agree that wuld be a must because i could see a few bad apples going around deleting discussions just so they could repost it for their our credit.

I usually use the preview button on discussions but an edit button would be quite useful as inevitably I spot a mistake I missed in the preview and it's too late to change it by then

I tend to forget to push the preview button lol I am usualy multi tasking and miss it.

Absolutely!! I have the worst luck in starting a discussion that anyone wants to respond to. Plus, it would help MyLot out by freeing up space on their servers because the discussion would no longer be there. I can see them putting a time limit on something where you couldn't delete it until after "x" days if there is no response, but I think it would be good for them AND us if we had more control.

Yes I think there should be a delete button in mylot for discussions , because even we some times make mistakes or we submit an incomplete discussion by mistake and later on feel embarrassed to see our discussion open to all and don't even find any option to delete it . I really wish we had choice of deleting at least our own discussions. May be we all should suggest this to mylot moderator. Have a nice day.

Good idea! i really think an edit button and a delete button would be a great addition to mylot of course with some rules to be aplied like if responses have already been made then you can't delete it such like that.

yes. there should be delete button and it should be disabled once the user has requested the payout.
and if the user has not requested the payout and opts to delete the discussion, the earnings from that discussion should be removed from the earnings.
Edit button is the best. I also like to have edit button.

i was actually looking for one the very first time i started a discussion. its funny because i not quite familiar on navigating the page and when i accidentally hit the post button, i cant do anything about it and sad to say.. its already posted :-) i myself wish there is a delete button so i can delete those topics that never received any response at all. its kind a frustrating whenever i see those topics with 0 response knowing that its a good one to discuss.

That si frustrating when you post soemthing you put alot of thought into and it goes unnoticed,but I tend to go through the zero respone post it helps raise your rating,so maybe I will find some of yours :)

Yes, and I would like to be able to edit my discussion or my response after I post it - often after I have posted, I realize that I have a typo and would like to go back and correct it.

I was just looking for an edit button earlier because I noticed a mistake I made in a discussion...lol. I'm really surprised they don't have one. I use spell check, but it doesn't catch everything, especially if you omit an entire word. I do tend to read my posts a little better now, though, but I would like to see an edit button.

I guess I need also the delete button. It happen just now to me that i have mistakenly hit enter key while I was typing a discussion causing to post the thread which is not yet completed and so I could not do anything about it.
Delete button which is accessible only by the thread owner would be of great help. Also if the thread was then responded by somebody, then even the owner will not delete the post made.

hello babyangie,
well some times i feel that the post that i just made could have been much better... that way we need a delete button for that....
but there is where the problem lies... if we delete a discussion then we will delete all the responses that were made...
so it is not bad if they have no option for deletion.
have a good day.

Oh sure yes! Especially with my typos. I often multi-task. It would make it a nicer read that's for sure. Not to mention I often forget about the preview button feature. That happens when you get in a hurry.

Yes I agree for posts one makes that do not get any responses
after a long time I think we should have a delete button
but use it only on unresponded to discussions so nobody
oses any points. a good idea.
@athinapie (1150)

A delete or an edit button would really sound like a good idea since we commit mistakes sometimes when we post comments in discussions and we fail to proofread before we post it. It would really be nice if there were buttons like that.

Yes a couple days ago I posted asking for help. I posted something and wanted to use a diffent interest but I was told I could not delete; that I would have to notify mylot and they would delete it.
I decided to leave it alone and I did not worry about it any more, but you know what! people responde for to it, so I left it alone.
Maybe one day they will come up with an edit & delete button they make changes here. lol
