When i tried to type %50 in guild chat it seen P like that. it happened more than a few times. When i put gap between % and 50 it shows normally. But when i type %50 without gap it shows P. %40 seen like @ its quite funny actually:)

It has to do with BBCode, right? But I thought that BBCode used .... ALT+XXXX to deliver the letter/symbol. Not the "%" I have no clue... :D

Actually that's ASCII support.
It also has UNICODE support as I typed above.

Here is a huge list of BBCode characters.. Just copy and paste.

Also, when typing out percentages you should type the percentage after the number. Just like how you read it, left to right. 50%
