I've never been to just right click and cut and paste into replies here, always relying on ctrl V to past. I don't know if anyone else gets this problem but I found a way to do it.

If you go to you user cp, click "edit options" and then scroll down to "Miscellaneous Options" "Message Editor Interface" and change it to "standard editor" you still get all the formating tools but can cut and paste as well.

"Basic editor" just gives you a white box but is fine if you have the FF BB code extentions
