Why doesn't linustechtips.com work properly in IE

Go to solution Solved by colonel_mortis,

There is a known bug with the rich text editor used by the software used on this forum that makes it incompatible with (most versions of) Internet Explorer because IE has a lot of quirks that are not on the HTML5 specification. It will be fixed for the next version of the forum software, releasing later this year and being rolled out on the forum at some point next year (but there is a lot of work to do before it can be rolled out, so it may be a few months). If you encounter any more bugs with the forum, they are most likely to be noticed and hopefully resolved if you post them in the Bugs and Issues thread in the "Forum News and Info" subforum.

I can't quote anybody. Why is this.

 

The reason I use IE is because firefox, chrome, and opera all suck right now. IE is the only one that isn't buggy as fuck, and the only problem with this browser is that it doesn't have Reddit Enhancement Suite.

I have had this problem before, not that I use IE normally, but I had to once and it doesn't work. As to why, no idea

I'm fortunate to say my feelings with Chrome are not mutual. It what ways do you find it buggy?
