The formatting is the picky colprate on this one. From what I can tell, the quests get screwy when you use commas (for some reason). Still, perl is the pwn :)
I haven't really looked into this yet, but I think it may be a misfeature of the function that sends messages to the client. Every major quest package I've seen uses periods instead of commas, so I presume that it the intended behavior. I'll add it to my list of things to look into.
