If you quote text in a post and in that text quoted they put a smiley before the start of it, the smilies in the quote doesn't get converted to an image.
Example:
This text I will quote with a reply
Now see what happens to smileymrgtb wrote:
This text I will quote with a reply
:lol:
smiley placed before text quoted. It only shows the smiley code and not smiley. But if smiley was at end of text it got displayed OK
