Your post had a <*> in it, and it attempts to parse unknown html out. When posting stuff you don't want things removed like that, put it in a [ code ] section and make sure you have "Disable HTML in this post" checked.

As for where to put it. It has to be inclued in the .lvz, and i believe it works AFTER you have downloaded the .lvz before (ie: re-enter arena).
