Positive vibes.

If you were to have the following in your 'About Me' section, it will not show up in a quote box on your profile page.

However, when you go to the forums, and click the drop-down selection to see someone's 'signature', it will show up in a quote box.

Essentially what I am asking is why, when you post it in your About Me section, it shows up in a quote box when people see it in the forums, but it does not show up in a quote box when you see it on your profile page.

It's still parsed correctly by BBCode, even there. The problem is that the "quote box" stylesheet rules don't apply to the profile page. They obviously do for forums. Hence the discrepancy.

Sing for me, will ya?

I've noticed that as well. Sort of annoying.

It's pretty difficult to explain, but it's cheaper and better for the environment.

Probably just a weird anomaly, nothing to really worry about though.

Hello, I'm Mr AwesomePizza. I like pizza and I'm a man. Reasoning for the name. I like to listen to the classics of music, write poetry, play video games, and much much more. I'm always down for a nice chat, so please hit me up for some conversation.

This seems right. I'm not so sure as to why, but if I had to guess this would be it.
