Cant type reply in thread or delete quotes.

Go to solution Solved by Godlygamer23,

Hold down CTRL and right click on the quote. It should give you the ability to remove it. If you still can't type anything after that, try restarting the browser and trying again. I have this problem sometimes, and it's a real pain on mobile.

I'm trying to reply to this thread.

It won't let me delete a quote and I can't type anywhere else in the reply box. I tried restarting my computer and when I come back, if I simply click in the reply box the quote is still there and I still can't type anywhere outside the quote.

Quote me so that I always know when you reply, feel free to snip if the quote is long. May your FPS be high and your temperatures low.

How do you remove the quote on the phone? The only thing that works for me is to cut the whole box. And that's a pain in the ass since you have to press a certain area of the box. 

The ability to google properly is a skill of its own.

I have yet to figure it out. It's inconsistent with this software.

Aside from using a different keyboard (one that sends proper key press events, such as "Hacker's Keyboard"), unfortunately there is no consistent way at the moment.
