Seems theres a problem with quoting someone and replying. See the bottom 2 replies to my thread here for an example: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/0/571654.page#6418322
It makes your reply part of the last persons message, and theres no option, even in the edit, to unquote your message, since it doesn't even have quote brackets when you enter it.

There was a missing {/quote} (replacing { with [, etc...) after "Thanks".

If I gathered this correctly, Bossfearless said, "Love your dubstep tau btw."
You replied with "thanks"
He then asked if you had the Nid codex.
You then replied that you didn't have the new codex, but you were hoping that the Trygons didn't change much, and then your auto append about the site quote tags messing up.

Do you have the new Nid codex in hand yet? If not, I advise you to refrain from painting on the Trygon until you've had a chance to really sink your teeth into the new book. There have been plenty of times when I started building and painting a model only to have to pop the arms/head/tail/whatever off when I realized that my chosen wargear was no longer what I wanted. For example, I've read conflicting rumors about scything talons becoming rather pointless, so Spike might have a slight problem there.


Your quotes are a bit mixed up, but no I don't have the new codex. I have the previous one though, hoping that the Trygon isn't changing too much. Although, I don't think trygons have any other options other than scythes, so he's stuck that way anyway XD

So it should look like this?

No actually I said to him that I liked his tau, and HE said thanks. See its kind of got mixed up. And when I tried to reply to say that I don't have the new codex, it still put it in a quote, and not a reply, and it still says that bossfearless wrote it and not me. And yes I checked to make sure my reply wasn't within the automatically placed quote brackets.

Okay, I know what happened. When you made this post: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/571654.page#6413248 there was a quote from bossfearless in the post, and everything is working well here.

When bossfearless mad this post:
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/571654.page#6417988
He didn't fully strip all of the text you quoted out of the post. If he had, the post should have looked like this:

So I thought there was a misplaced {/quote} tag, but it turns out there was just a misplaced {quote} tag. So if you go into your post and strip out the part that says:
from your post, everything should fix itself.

Ok I removed that bit, and its made my reply seperate, so that's good. Thanks. Can't figure out how to change the bit that bossfearless first quoted though.

The original misquote on his part? I wouldn't worry about it, everything has sorted itself out.
