    Strange text displaying when using Private Messages

    When i use the Private Message function and post or reply to a message, i get strange text appearing in the body of my post.

    If my username is magnumpi

    The text that shows in my posts or reply is: magnumpi 

    Does anyone have a clue as to why this is showing?

        Any help is greatly appreciated, this is hard to search for in google due to the characters in the error.

          Without a screenshot it's difficult to provide any assistance.

          Can you replicate the problem yourself? Any other users reporting it? If not, it's going to be an issue on the user's computer.

            So far it seems to be happening to one user and we asked them if they can try using a different computer to replicate the issue. Waiting to hear back from them.
