Is it possible to copy a message from a battle chat?

is it possible to copy a message from a battle chat so that i can paste it into google translate?

so far it only copies the username of the person who posted the message instead of the actual message.

so it's difficult for me to communicate with players who don't speak english.

You have to highlight it and then do Ctrl + C, and then paste it into Google Translate.

Well, the battle lobby chat is a bit glitchy, so you need to try copying whatever you're copying a couple of times, so it is registered by your browser. Then you simply Ctrl+V wherever you want.

i think i'm using the english one, everything on the site is in english.

i also try to choose server 5 where most english speaking players are but that is not always possible.

of recent i've been having problems with logging and playing games, i can only log into server 18 these days after retrying atleast once.

in the meantime i've been playing the chinese version of tanki.

but now i cannot chat in battle and in the members area.

this is the google translated message i get, what does it mean? and why? ''Your Chat interrupt. 702 hours 71,610 points will reconnect.''

it looks like i am banned for a whole month because 702 hours comes to 29 days. last night it was showing 708 hours.

i've tried that but it doesn't actually highlight for one to see that it has higlighted.

so i go ahead and do the Ctrl + C and most of the time it gets the players name instead of the message though i didn't highlight it.

i haven't had any trouble with the lobby, only the battle chat

Oh.. Now that's even glitchier :D In that case you might as well consider making a screenshot, because 98% of the time you try to copy something directly from the battlechat it doesn't work... I know, its annoying, but those are the hazards of flash games -_-

You can't copy anything from the battle chat, only players' names by clicking on them.
