it very difficult (not difficult, it is bad habit) to me to write without topography mistakes. and not reading before finalizing an article is an another bad habit. i would like to know whether is it possible to correct my topographic mistake after clicking over 'start discussion'?

Sadly 
editing after publishing is not allowed. I know it is irritating, but it helps lot of confusions also. People can write one opinion and then change the opinion after someone points out a mistake, It is a method for fool-proofing i guess. Anyway it has its own good and bad effects.

happy mylotting.

No, sadly we can't and that's a really glaring flaw with the entire myLot website. Yes, I know you can look over your post from top to bottom. Yes you can preview your post before you post it. But that really doesn't matter all things considered when you think about it. There are times where my brain kicks in with another thought and I can't add it once it has been posted unless I post a second post and that just looks bad.
Trust me when I say that a delayed brain reaction is all too common to say the very least. Yet we can't edit anything in our discussions. Spelling errors, they'll happen but I'll catch them most of the time. It's forgetting to post a little bit or hitting the post button when I meant to hit the preview button when I'm in a half dazed state or distracted for whatever reason. This really is the only thing that brings myLot down, the lack of the edit button.

i don't think you can edit a discussion that's already been submitted and posted. i too had experienced posting discussions with missing words and typographical errors. but i can't edit them to correct them. so i just put a comment on it. i hope we can edit discussions too. have a nice day!

If you want to earn well for your efforts here on myLot then you must change your habits and do a good job. You will only earn for quality posts.
We do not have an edit feature BUT we have a preview option. We can use that to correct any errors before submitting our posts.

Sorry but there is no chance for us to edit our post once it is submitted.
You can always preview it before posting or re-read it again to avoid same issue and mistake again..

No friend no chance to editing if once submitted so next time read once again before submitting. I also face this type of difficulty initially but now habitual first read and then submit. Minor spelling mistake is no matter dont worry about it but if big then may be discussion deleted. What is in your profile pic.
