Skitthirxy, the blight dragon
I noticed that this dragons mana abilities can not be used if it is not your turn. I thought mana abilities of creatures were able to be activated at any time a instant could be used. Specifically the regenerate ability. I was playing a match (which i still won ) and I could not use the pay 2 black mana and regenerate during the other players turn. I had specifically saved 2 black mana to dothis ability during there turn and i could not I am not sure if it was a glitch or if i didnt understand the rules or if i did understand them and they changed. Please let me know if i am wrong

First, Skithiryx does not have any mana abilities. The term is reserved for abilities that PRODUCE mana (and fulfil some other criteria as well), it does not refer to abilities that COST mana.
Second, you being unable to use an ability during your opponent's turn is most likely due to an opponent's card's effect, probably Myrel, Shield of Argyve. Pay attention to your opponent's cards, they can and will affect what you can and cannot do.
