Able to copy text on runestones.

Make us able to copy text on runestones so you can throw it into google translator and maybe get something useful out of it, please. :)

But that would ruin the aspect of it - Runestones are meant to be understood by people who understand the language. The ancient Greeks couldn't just go around reading foreign languages etched into rocks and then toss 'em in a translator.

However copy-paste in chat would be awesome.

You can translate what runestones say already, Just have to put some effot into it and input each character manually, there's a free web translator that does that (and will probably be on the top of the list if you write translator on Google...).

Why are people so damn set on realism? Hurr durr the ancient greeks couldn't copy it, you can do it manually...

It would make gameplay much more convenient to have this feature in the game, alongside with copy/paste for the standard client...well a good standard client to begin with would be nice, but yeah +1 to this.

Use the damn keyboard feature. There's also a character map on your computer for a reason.
