I think I've shown that I'm an honest poster and a decent white man. I should have the ability to post URL's and other stuff from the web.

But I can't. I might copy something out there but the posting window has the "paste" option disabled. And even if I copy a url letter for letter, it still won't be active.

What gives?

Your settings are probably wrong. Go to user CP, Edit Options, then here at the bottom of the page

Miscellaneous Options
Message Editor InterfaceWhen posting messages to the forums or other members, there are three interface types available to you. The simplest of these is a simple text box, while the last is a fully-fledged WYSIWYG editor, which allows you to format your text as you want it and see the results immediately.

Depending upon the capabilities of your web browser, you may not be able to use all of these options. If you experience problems when posting messages, try switching to a different interface type.


Set it to Standard Editor.


More than likely yours is set to basic editor.

On some other fora it seems I sometimes don't have the option of pasting something when I rightclick, but when I use ctrl v it works.

For me it is Control C for copy and Control P for past.
