Using IE11, it is highly annoying trying to type posts on the forums. When typing, the website drops characters at a rate of roughly 1 per 5 to 6 words. It is extremely annoying having to correct every 5th word because the forum decides to randomly drop letters. I'm using IE 11 and do not have this problem on any other website or forum that I post on.

This is actually a problem between IE and the forum software this forum uses. Any forum using this software has these same problems. You are just lucky enough to not use any other forums with this software. It's happening because Microsoft has been changing the behavior of the engine of IE in the last few versions, and it's difficult for other software companies to keep up.

Best Solution: Use a browser other than IE. Chrome, Firefox, and Opera are all excellent alternatives, and are free.

If you absolutely, positively, must use IE ... then there is a workaround, but no permanent solutions. You can try clicking the switch-looking button in the upper-left of the Reply window (labeled "Toggle editing mode") and that should help.

What forum software does this site use?

Does the software also have issues running on Chrome? Because every time I backspace after adding in formatting my cursor skipped to the next or previous word and I start typing in completely the wrong place out of order. It's really really really really really really irritating.

... yeah, ^ that actually just happened. I just left it.
