For some reason whenever you PM someone with < in your custom title the < turns into &lt;
Occasionally this will also occur throughout the rest of the fora as well.

& lt; is the HTML code for <, this is probably a way to stop people using HTML to do naughty things :)

Because to use html you need to start it with a < symbol, along with PHP, javascript and other such things.
