If you don't like people having a record of what you say, then maybe you shouldn't say it in a public forum.

If they quote you in an extremely derogatory manner and/or out of context, strictly meaning to cause offense to you, i would say it would be fine to ask a moderator to have a word and/or take further action.

I would reccomend instead to take a second look and check what you wrote before hitting the "post reply" button. that would prevent you from look like quote-fodder retard.

like in this thread, for example.

Of course you can. But the question now is: Is it important enough to bother the mods for?

As long as it's not racist/sexist/demeaning I say: No. Next time just take your time, and think things over before you post.

Also the 'eye for an eye' credo works pretty well, just quote him back.
