This keeps breaking links to certain forums with url rewrite (www.site.com/forums/metaboard-f86) and member.php, and I'm not sure of a fix.

EDIT: Fix made.

$mepattern2 = '/\/me ([^\r\n]+)/';
if(preg_match($mepattern2, $this->post['message']))
{
$this->post['message'] = preg_replace($mepattern2, '<b><font color="DarkOrchid">* ' . $this->post['username'] . ' $1 </font></b>', $this->post['message']);
}

Notice: space before the parentheses. Not after (I'm quite stupid with Regex)
