You can't delete or edit them because the discussion counts toward your rating.
If you take it away, they would have to have it take away from your rating.
But also, if there has been no response to that discussion, you will not get credit for that discussion.
As for editing, myLot has not been able to figure out yet how to allow you to edit your discussion without you being credited with another rating point.
Can you imagine if they allowed you to edit and each time you saved it, it would count as another rating? People would be cheating by constantly doing edit, save, edit save. But it would not be really generating any new discussions.
This has been a concern of many myLotters. I am sure that myLot is working on it.
Until then, you could try reporting your own discussion and ask them to delete it because you made a mistake.
Sorry that I could not be of any further help.
Welcome to myLot.
