some of my users have apostrophe's in their username but its not coming out right. Where the apostrophe is supposed to be, theres a backslash then an apostrophe. This started a few days ago and I dont know how to fix it

It is ontopic, they are asking what double escpaing is.

Escaping a character prevents sql injections, it appears they are escaping the characters AFTER its gotten from the db, which means there is no reason.

Or, double escape means its escaped twice before being put in the db, resulting the escaped apostrophes.

Oh, btw, its a forum problem, so post it in the problem from the new upgrade thread.

Nothing you can do about it Sad - it should return to how it should once fixed.
