I realized that you cant copy the text when you are posting a reply. Can we change that? I have wireless internet and sometimes when I hit the [submit reply] button it times out and I lose everything I typed. It is extremly frustrating when you type slow and it takes 20 minutes to make a good post and you end up losing everything and having to type it again. I like to copy my text and then if it didnt post the reply I can just paste it and submit again. This would be a real help if we could do copy our text before submitting our replies or even submitting a new thread.

Are you saying that right before you submit a post, you can not copy what you wrote????

Better yet, either change your editor option to Standard in your User CP for a permanent change

EX:

OR

For a temporary change, just click on the switch editor button above.

Either way will allow you to right click, copy and paste. All web browsers are different so test which one works better for you.
