Do they do this now when they split threads, or is this some sort of weird error?

As far as I know that had to have been done manually.

I did that manually, because splitting a thread where some topics are on-topic for both is not supported. I couldn't even use the original single-topic posts because the timestamps would have been out of order.

It may become a feature sometime in the future, to preserve the original timestamps.

Why did you remove the content of the quotes?

I didn't. The original text is what IS in the text (I made a new post quoting the original, then reassigned the poster from me to the original poster, and edited the quote tag).

I couldn't think of a clever/clear way to signify that this wasn't the original 'copy' of the post, but that it was originally somewhere else and moved manually. OOC tags, maybe.

Ah. I just now noticed that the name in the quote is identical to the name of the poster.

Possibly just using one quote, or occ tags at the end.
