Yeah, I know...
* WDZ slaps surfi for allowing that name
The [quote=] tag considers everything after the first closing bracket to be part of the quote, not the username. That's just the way it works. 
I suppose the workaround would be to support [quote="username"] because quotes are never allowed in names. Or, what I'd prefer to do, change wacky's name.

So? It would fix the issue but you could simply change the code to read "" and then remove them which is probably easier. I was just trying to save you work by suggesting a code that is already available.
