{don't use internet explorer}

that's not a helpful answer. Are there any adults capable of explaining the issue ? this shouldn't be that difficult. I should be able to use what ever I want and this site should adapt for ease of use accordingly.

Anyone with a more adult and helpful answer ?

He's right, though. Whenever I use Internet Explorer, I can't embed images or quote things without the site crashing. Google Chrome doesn't have any of these problems, I suggest using that

Why should the site adapt to accommodate virus-riddled buggy browsers? Especially when you can get better browsers for the cheap price of free.

What version? The rare times I browse via browser as opposed to in phone (right now for example) is when I'm at work and limited to IE9. I have no issues other than viewing or replying to posts that contain images hosted by photobucket since that's blocked.

You may have something running on your PC that's interfering with things. IE should work fine.

If it's a browser issue, you've likely looked at too much porn and picked up too many viruses.

And Internet Explorer in 2015 is pretty great. If you're holding over old jokes from the bad IE6 days, you should reconsider how clever you are. I've had way many more issues with Chrome than IE on my Win 8.1 laptop, especially on the resource management from.

@DG now...see, I cant even simply quote you or copy paste here, its frustrating and annoying.

that's of course a ridiculous comment since I can do all those things on 99 percent of the other forums I go to. Which means they understand and Are able to help other browsers etc. Its the job of this site to make it easier and more
accessible. Not to beat around the bush with excuses

If you move your mouse over a member name on the left side of the page, the names in all the quotes magically appear.

While I'm here...When I put a YouTube link in a post in the BASS thread, it no longer shows the YouTube clip in the post. It just posts a link to the video. This started about two weeks ago. Before then, the clips posted just fine. My guess is I accidentally changed a setting but I can't seem to figure out which setting I changed. Anyone know the answer?

This started happening to me too a lot longer ago, maybe like 4-5 months. I would usually just link an audio video in the what are you listening to thread, but it just puts links and it bugged me so I wouldn't post it.

I just stumbled on to the answer for this. When posting a YouTube clip, don't copy and use the link in the "share" window with the YouTube clip - this one...

Instead, just copy the url in the address window of your browser.

Can't you use tags with the link in them? Also found by choosing media from the "special bb code" drop down?

Can you post pictures of what is happening? It's very hard to debug someone else's problem when there's little to no information and that no one else can reproduce the issue.

What happens when you click the quote button? How about the MultiQuote button? What does your editor look like? Any error messages coming from the page or the browser?

Nothing will be solved if you only say: I can't quote, fix it. No one else has this issue - which brings the question: maybe there's something malicious on your computer?

I find it hard to understand that it's the sites responsibility to assess an individual's on-site issues.

As Pollux said, can you provide some screenshots of your side of things so we can better understand the issue?
