I see that you are registered. What computer and software are you using? I have noticed recently that very large copy and pastes will not work on the forums... If I have trouble copy and pasting, it may be because the format of the material that you are pasting does not fit the copy/paste format of the computer programs that you are using.
When I have particularly long text material, I often copy the material to a text editor program, fix it there, and then copy it to the forum post window.
Please note that the forums will not take HTML (because this would allow all sorts of ads to be posted on the forums) but it should take text and also active links to web sites. To put an active link in to the site that you want people to see, you can press the <URL> button which gives you fields to enter the URL address of the site and the display text from the active link.
