We'll call this new rule the Dutch Uncle rule.
Quote Box Altering:
One can alter a quote box by removing some of a wall of text to expose the specific part you are responding to, or splitting it apart so you can respond to each item one at a time. However, altering the words posted and changing the meaning of what they said for whatever reason (a joke for instance) is not allowed unless you change the "quoted by" portion of the quote to make it clear that the original poster did not post what you are "making" them say. We will begin by deleting these posts, and if it continues we will get into banning.
Example:
A bad "quote" that we would delete:
An altered "quote" that would not be deleted:
