I’m not an expert but it has always appeared to me that if someone improperly “quote” another person (changes or omits data or structure of the syntax) it can and will mess up the page rendering and create a run on...ghost page until either corrected by the user, admin or the new page is actually created by subsequent posts.

If you cut off any part of {quote] ... [/quote} (replace {} with []) at the beginning or end or any part of that (e.g., /quote] then it will mess the page rendering up.

If someone “quotes” another or “multiple quote” and you see a partial quote or non boxed quotation on the new post there will be an issue like you described.

If you don’t see this “box” on your reply, you have jacked it up for everyone after you.
