very perfect...but myLot has already done this....myLot does not allow paste onto the box, ofcourse only until 500 posts of yours, after 500 posts they do allow u to do copy paste...

Well the copy and paste function is good for the people who don't abuse it. When I see someone copying and pasting an entire article that hardly relates to the topic (or even does relate but isn't given any credit or input by the poster) I get kind of mad. I think it would be in mylot's best interest to get rid of this function though, I've seen it as doing more harm than good.

if you are using an internet explorer browser i think you cannot copy and paste anymore if your rating is under 500. this is a positive thing on people where their discussions are copied however it is non beneficial to others who are non abusive of the mylot features

I don't think they should ban it. Sometimes you may have the same answers for different questions. I sill can't copy and paste yet but Idon't mind it.

Copy pasting is already banned at myLot. Users are not allowed to copy and paste the answers of other users. Nevertheless, copy pasting from other websites is allowed to some extent until it is relevant to the topic. In that case also, it is necessary to give the source link. I would recommend you the discussion which was started by myLot itself in which it states that why some discussions are deleted. After that they sent one alert to all the members mentioning everything clearly. I think you joined late, that is why you are not aware of this thing. You please read the discussion which was started by myLot to update your knowledge. Thanks.

I have only been a member of mylot for about a week so I cannot copy and paste yet anyway. I do wish I could copy and paste as it would prevent alot of my typo's. I like to type my articles on word and them copy and paste. That way I can spell check. I agree that many seem to be abusing the priveldge on mylot though.
