newpost and newreply, you'll see code like this:

Code
		$markupselect .= "<option value=\"markup\" selected=\"selected\">{$ubbt_lang['USE_MARKUP']}</option>";
	}
	if ( ($HTML == "On") || ($user['U_Status'] == "Administrator") || ($user['U_Status'] == "Moderator") ){
		$markupselect .= "<option value=\"html\">{$ubbt_lang['USE_HTML']}</option>";

Change the selected bit, like this:

Code
		$markupselect .= "<option value=\"markup\" >{$ubbt_lang['USE_MARKUP']}</option>";
	}
	if ( ($HTML == "On") || ($user['U_Status'] == "Administrator") || ($user['U_Status'] == "Moderator") ){
		$markupselect .= "<option value=\"html\" selected=\"selected\" >{$ubbt_lang['USE_HTML']}</option>";
