Is it a really big security problem if i enable my self to use HTML code? Like if me and managment can use HTML and on the threads we can use HTML on only management and I can create new threads.

no, html can't break anything by chance, only if you allow every user to use html, it could be used to destroy your forum layout, add unwanted iframes, scripts or other media to the site without your direct control.

If you limit it to the staff, it should be okay.

I am curious as to what happens when a non-html-allowed user quotes a post containing html from an html-allowed user.

Is the non-allowed user able to edit the html content in the quote and possibly insert malicious content?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
