I've been able to duplicate it.

Actually, I didn't know what they were talking about until I tried to edit my post above.

When I edited it, then saved it back, the message was saved but with < and > rather than [ and ].

Even when I manually edited the edited post and changed the < to [ and > to ] the message was stored with the < and > tags. I ended up deleting it, and re-entering it.

If you'd like, I'll edit the message again, and let you see the result, but you should look at the formatting first, so you see what happens.

I had this problem (similar) with WWWThreads. My url tags were not being translated properly. I had to hack away at the regexes for a while to make it work, and I'm still not sure they do. Why? I don't know. I made a few upgrades to the system (the advanced smileys) but that shouldn't have changed the tag parsing.

But, this problem seems to be how EDITED messages are handled by the parsing algorithms, and not the new messages. It's specific to the edited messages.
