Yeah encoding multibyte strings is hell on vBulletin 3.8, which was not designed as UTF-8. That is why the chatbox gives me so much trouble. I am working on a brand new framework to replace the chatbox, which was written 10 years ago by someone else...

Microsoft Quotes are a nightmare with vBulletin 3.8, we get them all the time with webinar descriptions and things, and they break things if not handled right. It's fine in page text, but not in other areas of forum.
Microsoft just had to go and use their own quotes instead of "regular" ones

I almost replied to a post from May 2019 just now, because of that - especially since it's top of page, where the new post would appear, so I didnt notice it right away.
Have the issue with clicking through these two links, right now (both on android via ecosia browser and on google chrome PC):
