[quote=Plus4Four#]Some Welsh place names.....
Porthmadog.......Portmadog ( behave yourselves)
Aberystwyth.......Abawristwatch
Dolgellau.......Dollygaloo
In the Valleys is a town named after a noted local.......Tonyrefail, named after Tony Revail.
Kidwelly.....used to have a factory making wellies for children.
Some of these are accurate

I expect it'd be easier to add something to prevent usernames that upset it, rather than fix whatever is causing the quoting issue.
