Why can't I post anything on my laptop or other computer?

The picture explains it all:

I can only post this because I'm using my sister's really crappy computer. But this thing happened to the shared computer, and now the laptop! What the heck is going on!?! Now, I'm gonna see if google has any answers
 
NEVERMIND! I FIGURED IT OUT! For anyone who has had this same problem and can't figure it out, check if you have the "Compatibility View" option activated on your computer. Having it activated glitched the website for me, so if you have this problem PLEASE DE-ACTIVATE IT!

To clarify that, Compatibility View applies to Internet Explorer. Alternatively you can just try other better browsers.
 
Well te Compatibility View doesn't really help, it just glitches up the website, so I leave it off all of the time. I know it's supposed to help, but it just messes it up for me :/
 
I had the same problem 2 days ago. I dont know why it happened :\. Good that you fixed it.

The whole point of CV in IE is that you toggle it on on a site if it works incorrectly (in other words, relies on old non-standard ways older versions of IE rendered certain things). You should only use it if some site doesn't work, not leave it on by default.

I didn't PURPOSELY turn it on. I accidentally clicked it and didn't know that it turned on...
