I think this should be not allowed. It messes up the post when you quote the person with a username that has tags such as the "[/quote]" tag.

Don't quote the person. Or edit the name.

For example, people who still feel the need to sign their posts. it takes an extra second or two, but I do it. No big deal in the big scheme of things.

Easy fix.

In the quote, just replace the second double quote (") with two single quotes ( '' )

="'"][/quote]"]

Et voila !

Hi Budster. I recognize your style at evading the swearing filter. Reported for personal attacks.

Budster shouldn't have a problem. The mods and admins in here are near useless. All he should do is create another username. They certainly can't contain cash. How hard would that be?

So, budster's gone but not the guy who purposefully screws up other people's posts with his username that took him 5 tries to perfect. I love this place.

Yes, NOW.

I suggest in the future, when making said obscure posts to make them clearer. Or not. Just don't call people names for something you did, or in this case, didn't do.
That isn't very nice.

Anyways back to the topic at hand, My $.02 would be to limit usenames to alphabetic characters. Ca$h's latest seems to be that he mashed the keyboard.

Budster was warned again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again to stop picking fights with me. Then he was given 2 final warnings. Then an ultra super final warning.

Could you maybe start a subforum for Kilbey to whine like a little girl about me? I mean, he just gives me so much undivided attention since he pays attention to everything I do for some reason, I just think maybe it'd be better for him to have a little seperate place where he can have his own "How much I think about Ca$h" blog.

Someone sure complains a lot for saying they wouldn't come back here. If as you say, the mods/this place is so bad...leave "again" then and STFU!

I'm glad harassing me makes you feel better about your life working at a ****ing factory, you uneducated white trash piece of ****.
