A question mark, not part of the quoted material, as in Dive's case, would go on the outside. (Where Dive placed it).

I’m going by what Miss Alawat says. She is tiger’s teacher.

You really are a weak human being.
When it was pointed out to me that I had made an error I immediately acknowledged I was mistaken. However, when you make an error (I'm ignoring the tedious Miss Alawat nonsense) you can't bring yourself to acknowledge it. Why is that? You and only you arrogantly corrected another poster's grammar and did so erroneously.
Is it a pride thing?

You really are a very small person.

You and FMF have been claiming you expressed yourself perfectly clearly and perfectly fine when you said you had no notion of divine law.
Everyone knows you expressed yourself very poorly and that you should have said you didn’t recognize divine law as legitimate or put no credence in it. Saying you have no notion of it is obviously expressing a different thought, but you refuse to admit it and instead attack me for pointing it out. You’re now engaging in psychological projection by claiming that I refuse to acknowledge when I’m wrong.
Sick!

That’s just the ale talking. I packed some extra breath mints in your knapsack so Principal Saunders doesn’t smell the beer on your breath.

If you were a bigger person, you would have acknowledged your error. But you haven’t because you’re small.

What error are you talking about? My questioning of Ghost’s error?

So, it is a pride thing?
Golden rule. if you're going to arrogantly correct someone's grammar you better make damn sure you know what you're talking about.
