Copy and Pasting issues

So I've found lately that I (and others) are having trouble copy and pasting things into comments...

Whether it be articles from AFL.com or write-ups for XVs competitions etc. it seems like the item that has been copy and pasted will cut out after a symbol (so writing will be copy and pasted until a symbol, like an apsotrophe, occurs). It can be a bit frustrating because it might mean that we lose what we're trying to put into a comment. :(

I've only really noticed this problem since the new servers were used, not sure what can be done (if anything) to fix this?

Thanks. :)

I'm using Chrome but it's still an issue.

It's strange because if you preview the text it all comes up but then you go to post and most of it vanishes. :(

Have noticed this issue. Another issue is some special symbol letters don't work. For example in the WXV my team is the Sao Paulo Pumas. Sao is meant to have a special a, but when I type it in it doesn't post correctly, as I will demonstrate here...

CrowsFan

Hmm doesn't even show up, and any text I write in after doesn't show up either...  ???

Yeah when I copy my X team from a word doc... It never copys and pastes. There is a trick to it.

Preview then copy and paste from the preview which will for some reason work...

Yeah I think this is a problem for some reason... A 'special' letter or symbol, sometimes even a dash, causes the writing to cut out completely ???

But yeah, just a bit annoying :( Hopefully we can fix it..

I had the problem in a PM, annoyed me greatly. I'm using Firefox for what it's worth...
