I've experienced this problem on two different Windows 8.1 machines running IE 11.
When creating a forum reply, if you highlight any text containing programming code and click "Quote Selected Text", it responds "You did not select any text to quote" and fails to quote the text.
This problem does not appear in any other browser.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Has been around since the beginning of IE11 I believe.
It has been reported many times, [1], [2], [3] and [4] at least.
But if it can't be replicated I guess there's not much to do until someone with the right knowledge experiences the bug and sits down and does the necessary debugging.

It seems the "Layout" mode of a forum view is being ignored. The setting is correctly persisted, but the forum is always shown expanded. I need to click "Update" to reset the view to Thread Edit mode (which is my persisted preference). This applies to all forums.

Are you viewing the forum in response to a search result?

No - I know it happens when I reach a post from Google. But this is a simple access from CP's home page via the Discussions menu. It started happening about 2-3 days ago.

I fear a slip of the mouse happened and I deleted a comment by CHill60 on: [^].
I wasn't even aware I could delete someone else's comment !
I'd notify CHill60 by private e-mail, but they, like me, do not allow private e-mail.
Sorry, Bill

Don't worry about it Sean - it wasn't that pithy

I don't 'only' save accidentally deleted pithy comments. I'm not ALL monster. Just before my coffee. And a little bit after.

Worry thee not!
OP has found a solution anyway.

It's very easy to undelete it yourself. If you can delete comments, you can also see deleted comments, and those deleted comments still have a pencil button so you can edit them. Click on that pencil button, change nothing, and then press Submit. Then the comment is undeleted. (I did that with your deleted comment there to test whether it works, but don't worry, I deleted it again  ).

I got into a discussion with Richard MacCutchan today about "code tags"
I point out to an OP to use the "code tags" around the code portion of his post, indicating him to use the "code" button, which are in the technical sense "pre" tags. The var button however does use the technical "code" tags. Eddy Vluggen pointed out that this indeed might be somewhat confusing for some users.

Part 2
This article[^] needs some cleanup in the comments section.
What the hell causes this anyways? Some weird HTML tag mixture?
EDIT: Error text
Quote: Something bad happened
We're not sure what, but we have a few guesses.
Problem: Type definitions should start with a '{', expecting serialized type 'ExpiresWrapper`1', got string starting with: $7 4586006 $1106 {"HasExpired":false,"Expires

I was thinking, is it possible to make the preformatted blocks as collapsible, as it is for the "sopilers" sections in forums? In this way long code dumps would not render the page cluttered.

+1, this is already possible in QA and in articles, but not yet in forums, and I agree that it would be a good idea to have that feature also in the forums.

Also +1. I completely agree.
It would be nice in the comments of QA too - especially after the moron who just kept re-posting ALL of his code into comments the other day

I notice there are now "Collapse" and "Copy Code" on codeblocks in the forums. But clicking on "Collapse" doesn't do anything than change it's text to "Expand".
Doesn't look like that feature is "Completed" to me
Tested with:
Google Chrome: Version 41.0.2272.64 beta-m (64-bit)
Internet Explorer: Version 11.0.9600.17633

In the forums, right?
The forums are all initially collapsed so the PRE tags are all display:none, meaning their height is 0, and so the script that adds a collapsable wrapper can't tell whether or not it should add the wrapper.
If I had it so code blocks always collapse to 0-height (as it used to be) then it would all look perfectly fine. However, I made a change so that collapsing will only collapse to 400px high. So - I need to add a small change to have the collapse wrapper added only when messages are expanded.

Edit: Yeah, in the forums.
Ah, I didn't notice the collapse now only reduces the height to 400px.
Beeing able to collapse them to 0 height was quite nice when reading an article where I didn't care that much about the code block interrupting the written text. And the collapsed blocks with the scrollbar look a bit silly in my opinion
You could maybe add an option to either collapse the block completely, only reduce the height or to show the whole block?
By the way, in articles the collapse wrapper is already only added if there is some kind of minimum height already? Are those handled differently?

Correct.
They are handled differently in that the script can see the height of all the codeblocks at render time.

Ah, ok. I had noticed this in the articles and thought it was a bug - that is actually why I checked this thread out. I prefer collapse working as it used to, collapsing to zero height.
Just my 2 cents.

In my sweeps on the forums to find spam and spammers I realized that much of the slipped-by spam is stored inside the personal forums of the members. This is an ongoing practice as I have just found spam messages posted this way on the 4th 11th of February, so it is not possibile to ascribe this kind of spam as a single past wave.
I think that the access to personal forums should be allowed only to high ranking members (silver/gold or higher) or at least to stable non-spamming members for a threshold time (weeks? months?).
My two cents.
EDIT: more recent spam found
