The "copy & paste limitation" is prohibiting my fast typing and deleting my info

Has anyone else experienced this problem?
It's really making me angry that this system gives me the copy and paste spill when I'm just typing fast! It keeps deleting my words, and I've retyped this discussion 7 times!
Sigh, this will prevent my super activity planned tonight! :/

You better work a bit harder here and get your 500 posts to qualify for the ability to 'copy/paste'. I too felt that way before I reached my 500 posts. Now about deleting your words I wonder if it has anything to do with this site rather than that being your own problem. Just a thought.

I'm pretty sure its a bug and it needs to be fixed immediately! :/
It's making me so sad and messing up with my replying and discussing! :(

Have you tried reducing your typing speed? May be that will help?

It's probably a problem on your end. I don't know why you're experiencing it but I just rapidly typed three lines of spam (which I deleted before posting because it's spam __) without triggering the error.
It could be a problem with the way your browser or computer is handling the script. Try using a different browser for a bit and see if it still happens.

I am quite confused with the discussion too. I thought the problem occurred after you tried "copy paste"

Hi dellessimon
as you know you can copy paste only when you reach the 500 mark
i think you need to slow down a bit while typing here
just have patience till you reach the mark
i never had problem while typing fast here when i was below 500 mark i used to get disappointed only when i sometime used to use the undo and redo feature which is not allow as it is same as copy paste

I didn't get what you mean dear. But try to reach 500 post and mylot will allow you to copy/paste things. I normally don't copy/paste so I have not encountered such problem.

there might be a problem with your PC because yes we are not allowed to copy paste unless we reach 500 in our activity rating but if you are trying to copy paste it should not delete the whole discussion.
