I just realised that I have put the same discussion up twice by accident. Can I delete the second one? I didn't realise that mylot had posted the discussion the first time, as I "backed" out of the tag screen. Then I re-wrote the discussion and posted it, just to find out the previous discussion had also gone up there. I can't see an easy way of deleting the second message, does anyone know if it can be done? Or do you definitiely know it can't be done? Thanks for your help.

vedgegirl its really easy as it happens to a lot of u s, You have seen the plus and minus and exclamation point signs? well the exclamation point most know can be used to report someone insulting or flaming but the second use is to say mylot admins somehow I got a duplicate of my discussion posted so please will you delete it for me as it was a glitch thanks mylot admins. thats how you get it deleted. they have always done it fot me when I turned up with a duplicate. its their glitch so its up to them to get rid of it.

Thanks - they deleted the 2nd discussion, and my rating went down, so I am not sure if this is related. Then they deleted another discussion tonight that I didn't ask them to, I'm not sure if this is a coincidence.

You can't delete it manually by yourself. Only Admin can do that :). Simply press "!" below your started discussion, and ask for deletion with a good reason. Don't worry, it wouldn't be considered as "reporting abuse." Admin surely can tell from your reason :). It may take up to 1 x 24 hours for deletion, so you shall be patience then B-)

You may hit the shaded "!" icon under the discussion description & this marks it for abuse, then you can explain the reason to admin when prompted or they may pick it straight off.
