Quoting others "inaccurately"
#20
RE: Quoting others "inaccurately"
that's understandable then in that situation.  But then couldn't it just be that it's only against the rules if a person is using the bold to misrepresent someone's arguments. 

I imagine 9 times out of 10 the bolding is being used for the genuine purpose of just showing which section of the conversation you're talking about.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
