Failed quote *again*. When you include a '.' in a quote, then that should mark where the person's sentence *actually* ended. If the person says other things after the quote, you should have an ellipsis (...) to represent the fact that you have *elided* what was said.

That's totally irrelevant. What I posted was a word for word quote. All you're doing is nit-picking the formatting. Are you so lacking in better responses that all you can do is attack over semantics? You're taking the term "Grammar Nazi" to an entirely new level. Instead of just attacking the opponent's spelling you're attacking quote formatting.

This is basic intellectual honesty 101.

No. This is the forum for a gaming site. It's not college essay, it's not an official media press. The formatting does not have to be exact.

here's a decent intro into quote mining (what these guys are doing here): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallacy_of_quoting_out_of_context

Since you like fallacies so much....

As a final note: Going around policing every little nitpick about the structure of other's arguments and pointing out fallacies doesn't make you intellectually superior, although you seem determined to present yourself as such.

hey Eklipse! Please notice me! Its me and don't call me dwarf!!

No Eklipse, watch your own freakin' video. You *elided* the end of her sentence and pretended that's all she said. Your own freakin' video. This is not formatting, it's content. And yes, it is intellectual honesty 101. Which you are currently failing, BTW.

Hey there!

You might want to evacuate this thread though, probably going to go up in a full-scale flame war. I'm partly to blame, but oh well...

I really should stop taking political threads seriously, they aren't worth it.

Well this thread made me adopt two chromosomes called Johnny and Jose.

Why are we nitpicking on issues like formatting, exact wording and grammar instead of debating policy merits? This is so petty its the type of thing I would only expect from someone like Angry Koala... where is he anyway?

Lol ça c'est cadeau

I bet the americans did this.

+1

Angry Koala is not on the level of stupidity of Hitchslap. Not even approaching it.

But sometimes Angry Koala can be petty.

Hitchslap and WCT are in their own league though. League of Legends? No. League of Petty? Yes.

lol such a display of wit here
