Why do some quotes show author name & link to source but others don't?

from GalCiv2 Forums

Title says most of it. The inconsistency is confusing. If it is because some folks are posting from other *.com nodes that Stardock owns, I'd appreciate the web devs bring our aging little neighborhood up to speed with the rich folks.

p.s. Thanks for fixing the earlier white-on-nearly-white quote readability problem.

The author and link are inserted only if you click the quote button without any text highlighted, to quote an entire post. If you quote manually, there won't be any of that. Alternately, you can even put whatever you want in as long as you follow the format, and use a header as if you had done it that way.

What's interesting though is that two quotes w/ an authors cannot be in the same post w/ the two quotes being seperated as I mentioned over in this thread.  No sir, it don't like it.

Not intentional, the regex just needs tweaked (seems it uses greedy wildcards, rather than lazy).

Greed=Bad, Lazy=Good .... I guess I've been a 'good' person all along!
