Hi, I just voted below you in an RFA. I use this syntax highlighter, and because your signature doesn't contain closing bold tags, it caused everything below your signature to be highlighted, making the highlighting useless. The highlighter expects all markup tags and brackets to be closed, and closed in the reverse order they are opened. Could you please add the '''
