Default This place needs to allow copy & paste!!

I had already composed a detailed discussion about a small electric plane in WORD software, and I copied and pasted it in RCgroups.c Then I copy it from WORD once more and come here to paste it where I've been a member forever. I get reminded that this is the ONLY website I visit that doesn't let me do that! NOT going to type it with one finger all over again because this place has that defect!

Yea, I'm pissed!

Not sure what you're talking about, can you take a screen shot or something so the tech's can take a look?

I can open a new post and copy and paste easily.

Moved this to the correct forum for your issue

Just as an example, I tried to copy and paste your Post #3. I can left click the mouse and highlight what you said in your post #3. Or, I can left click and copy what I composed in Word. Or, I can left click and copy anything anywhere! Then I bring it here to post it and discover I can't paste it because the "paste" function is missing.

So the problem is that after I've copied something, there is no way for me to paste it. ie: I right click the mouse to bring up the menu and then "paste" that item (that I already copied).... but I have no way to paste it into my post. As you see in my screenshot, the "paste" function doesn't exist. Now there was an exception that when I was in the middle of making this reply, I noticed I was able to copy and paste sentences or words to move them around. BUT, if I didn't already have a reply open and going, it seems the system doesn't want me copying you first, or copying something I wrote somewhere else like in Word or in G-mail, and coming here ready to "paste" it. (as you see in the photo where there is no "paste" option)

This only happens to me when visiting RCU.

I highlighted your post and copied it....

....but I have no way to paste it.

I sometimes get the same issue. In your screenshot above, I don't see the cursor in the text box. First click inside the box to "activate it" to receive data, then click Paste. It you still don't have a Paste option, then click Ctrl and V (if using Windows). But in either case, you have to first click inside the box where you want the text placed.

Had gotten busy with the holidays and other things, moved on and just plum forgotten about this.

I just finished trying your "Ctrl and V" reply to find it works! Dunno why RCU is the ONLY website that requires it, but I'll just leave myself a reminder memo to do that in the future. Thanks.
