This is probably reported allready but I don't have time to read all.

If a user is registered with an alias like [Me]MyAlias and you try to quote that persons message you get a fucked up quote.

Is there a fix for this in the newer version of FUD?
Are you going to fix it somehow?

This is one of the things that is nearly impossible to fix. The reason for this is that even if I were to encode the user's name, the browser would decode it on POST submission Sad.

The real fix would be to disallow ] character inside names, since it is this character which causes a problem.

There is another problem, which appears when you're using a [ and qouting someone who's used a [ before. Look below.


Be mindful of your thoughts. They'll betray you.

Notice that I changed the ] to a [ in my qoute! Otherwise everything's the same as previous reply.
