Maybe because you need to have written 10 posts in order to unlock some of the features of this website. You just hit that mark with your last post. Try it again now and see what happens.

No, it's not that. I have 5000+ posts, and I have the same issue on this computer. But on library comps, it's different.

Idk, sometimes when I paste stuff the link works and sometimes I have to use the "link" box and paste it in there.

Because it's been broken for about 3 months now and there seems to be no solution in sight.

Where do you copy and paste to and from? Most forum software bugs out if you c/p from MS Word for instance.

I had another thought. Sometimes when I right-click in a text box I don't get an option to Paste. When this happens I hit my "Enter" key. I scroll down far enough for a scroll bar to be created on the right-hand side.

Once the scroll bar is visible, I right-click again. I always have the option to Paste now.

Use CtrL+V to paste.

If you are trying to copy and paste from word, when you go to post, there is a yellow folder with the word symbol, "W" on it. You have to use it to paste. Copy from word, paste with the word symbol.
