Why can't I post a reply on my discussion board?

[aestra50]

I kept trying to post my response to a question on one of my discussion boards numerous times, yet it would not let me post my reply and eventually the assignment locked. I don't understand why it would not let me submit my response.

Hi  @aestra50  Thank You for your question.

This sounds very frustrating.

The first thing that came to mind is that I've seen people try to post their reply in the incorrect box. 

This guide outlines all you may need to know:

How do I reply to a discussion as a student? 

I hope this helps. 

If not then please make sure you seek assistance from your institution.

This is the support ASU suggest:
