Copyblock on the Pit by

I'm trying to copy something from the badfic I'm doing my first mission on, but it won't let me copy it on mobile or desktop. Is there a way to get around this, or will I have to type it in manually?

Yet another method. by

This one's not on the page (yet): If you use Firefox as your browser, you can get an add-on called RightToClick. It works for the Pit with default settings, and you can get it to work for the Circle by enabling the advanced option "Disable CSS styles." It'll make the page look broken, but you'll be able to copy & paste the text.

It's a bit more complicated to get through, but if you right click on the page, click on 'view page source' that'll open up in a new tab, scroll down to somewhere around line 300 and that's where the chapter starts, you can copy from the text from here all you like. The one problem with this is that it shows all the code used on the page, which can make scrolling through it quite confusing, especially as it doesn't have line breaks or paragraphs (which also makes it slightly unreliable for straight copy-pasting into missions, you'll need to check how its formatted in the fanfic first. You can also get to there by typing 'view-source:link' where link is the url into your search bar thing at the top of the page.

Should have checked that before I wrote that all out.

There was a page on the Wiki... lemme see... aha! Here we go! Nocopy!
But to save you the time, just replace the 'www' with 'm' and it'll bring you to the mobile version, which still lets you copy/paste stuff. ^_~ -
Huh, it only lets me copy mobile version on desktop. by

I wish I'd known about it before I did my first mission... I ended up copying all the excerpts out by hand, and with all the weird typos, it made the whole process ten times slower because I had to make sure I didn't misrepresent the badfic I was sporking. :P

It always does to ask about stuff - it's the first thing I do in case of knowledge gaps. These happen too often for my liking. Incidentally, if anyone could tell me what one plus one makes, that'd be brilliant, ta. =]
