I put the part I quoted in bold.
Now please explain the context in which the part in bold means something completely different from what you said; I'm all ears.
1. Not relevant to THIS thread.
2. I've reported it because I am sick and tired of you quote mining people for your own personal gain. My three year old post had NOTHING to do with the thread you dragged it in. You clearly took it out of context which is a clear violation of the Misquoting rule.
It IS relevant to this thread since you accused me of violating rules in this thread.
Quote:Quoting Others Inaccurately
When quoting another member of the forums, whether using quote tags or putting quotes between quotation marks, members may quote them in whole or in part, but may not change the quoted text by adding, modifying, or deleting words. An exception to this rule is where the member is paraphrasing, provided that the paraphrased quote does not change the meaning of the original quote, or takes the quote out of its original context.

1. a restatement of a text or passage giving the meaning in another form, as for clearness; rewording.
Again, explain what you actually meant by stating:
Quote:And yeah, I don't commit murder because I AM afraid of the death penalty. That and I obey the laws because Prison Orange isn't my color. I have a list of five people who I would happily off right now if I knew that I could get away with it. So your argument is invalid.
