I remember reading somewhere in this forum about a new feature on the site - a post in which you had been quoted would be given a special colour so you could see any replies you'd had easier. It never seemed to work for me so I assumed it was a feature that is on the waiting list to be implemented.

However, I was (geekily) having a look at the page source earlier on, and I see that there is a JS function that indeed should be doing what I described above - however, it doesn't work for me. Any ideas why? I'm only speculating here, but I *think* it might be because my username has numbers in?

Just testing to make sure it doesn't work?

ETA: your post "quote" should be blue...

We had a couple of people complaining about this the other day. I'll make sure it is added to the bugs list and we'll see why it isn't working for some.
