It's getting very frustrating. And when you edit, you can't see anything wrong. It just doesn't read the first quote, and mis-attributes all the rest.

That has happened before...several years ago. I had thought at first it was the posters screwing with quote commands...but it happened to me also..and I NEVER make mistakes!

It kept attributing quotes to the previous poster, making it look as if the stupid guy was smart and the intelligent one had lost his mind!

Are you tawkin' about the "

" line?

That's just somebody having removed the close-quote from the end during their post writing/editing. Miss the first one, and everybody else's name moves up one. If nobody fixes it, it will self-perpetuate in each subsequent post.

I have however noticed the image insert misbehaving a lot.

Whatever the cause, it can be often seen as an unofficial yet accurate indication that the thread affected has run its course and needs to be put out of its misery – such as the thread cited in the OP.
