Yeah, when people hit the Add Reply button and go to the dedicated post reply page, their name turns italic. Also, if someone hits the Reply button to reply to a single post with a quote, their name turns italic.

Even though the fast reply is closed by default(although this setting is changable in your control panel under board settings), the fast reply HTML code is loaded when the page is loaded, and is simply changed from hidden to visible when you click the fast reply button...notice how fast it is and how the page doesn't ever reload when you click it? That's why.
