Title: what's going on when
Post by: franksolich on July 03, 2015, 05:21:35 AM
What's going on when one's copying from Skins's island, and right-clicking the mouse doesn't highlight.....and so one's compelled to refresh the page, after which right-clicking the mouse highlights for copying-and-pasting.....for a while, after which one has to refresh the page yet again?

This isn't a major problem, and it seems to occur only when trying to copy from Skins's island--although it might happen with other sites; damned near 100% of my own copying-and-pasting's from Skins's island.

It doesn't happen every time or every day.

But it has happened often enough that I've abruptly cut short threads I wish'd be longer.

Is the elusive enigmatic Elad messing with people who want to quote Skins's island?

It may be that the page you are trying to copy from is still loading.  I have had a similar issue with the really long threads at the DUmp, sometimes it takes several minutes for them to fully load.
