I use cut/paste and copy/paste a lot for editing posts and not being able to do this really cramps my style and is just odd. I usually right click and select "cut" or "copy" but I do not have these options and it is only on this site. I have even tried the little scissors button at the top of the box and that doesn't work.
I don't get it. I can paste from other sites. Just wondering as I have tried a few times now and it is kind of annoying to have to re-type everything rather than cut and paste to edit posts.

I think it is a vbulletin quirk, you could use the shortcut keys ctrl-c (copy), and ctrl-v (paste), or in the advanced editor mode of this box when typing a post there is a little scissors icon (cut), and then the two icons just to the right of the scissors are copy and paste.
Hope that helps, I will look into why the right click context menu doesn't have copy/paste, etc
Almost all items on the forum have what is called "alt text", meaning if you hover the mouse over the icon it should tell you what the icon does.
