Can't copy and paste properly

[Enigmatic]

I can't copy and paste things properly. Here's what happens when I C&P:

The quote thing was done by me, the rest was not.

Why is this happening and how can I fix it?

If you're using the rich-text editor, try turning it off and just typing BBcode.

Sorry, but what exactly is BBcode?

 

[alethiophile]

BBcode is the HTML-style underlying markup that posts are stored in. It represents markup using tags, e.g. [b]bold text[/b], [i]italics[/i] and so on. Posts without any formatting are usually just plain text.

If you turn off the rich text editor, you instead get a plain text area where you can type BBcode.
