When you reply to someone you will see this

Code:
[quote='Stimbo' pid='1306872' dateline='1466299317']
The burden of proof does not apply to opinions; only positive assertions. Your continual claiming of the discursive high ground does not alter that.

To your second point re: "fancy colours", I think we both know exactly what I mean. Please keep me out of your little games, yes?

Finally, please learn to quote properly. It's not difficult. Replying within quotes as you are doing makes it unnecessarily awkward to follow the flow of your threads, inasmuch as there can be said to be one.

In order to quote properly do not write inside their quote tags but instead separate the parts and add your answers between the separate parts outside of the quote tags.

Do you think you can prove that I have not used burden of proof right ?

Do you think you can prove I'm playing little games in this forum ?

Do you think you can prove that we both know exactly what you meant by "fancy colours" ?

I think my posting skills are good enough for people with enough experience.  You may agree that some people are too busy to do things sometimes like I have been.  Do you want to give me instructions on how you think I should quote properly ?

Now that I have taken the time to show you how, it would be wise to do so in the future. Quote mining or deliberately misquoting people is against the rules.

Do you think I was misquoting people, if so, burden of proof.
