make a mask, I can't make anything darker or lighter,

When I want to make a mask, I can't make anything darker or lighter, so why is that not working properly? When I want to cut out a picture, I can only cut it out through your sizes, Why can't I make my own cut how I want it, very annoying. When I use remove it only works for a few photo's then it will put back what I had errased earlier, or just not errase at all, How Annoying is this? I pay enough for lightroom that it works good, but it doesn't do that at all. I use Desktop, and I want Lightroom to work properly <Removed>
