Quoting other posts?

I rarely wish to add a whole post, so copy and paste is quite sufficient.  Also I have seen posts in PissedOffHeads where entire pages are taken up with quotes of quotes of quotes, so that the matter is lost in the repetition.

By using copy and paste, it is easy to agree and disagree with parts of a complex post.

However, I would agree that the loss of attribution is a noticeable disadvantage.

But, if you want to respond to a specific post, can you not just use the reply function and save having to copy the text/quote anyways? Am I over simplifying or missing the point? Whilst there may be other/better ways of forums, this seems to work in the round? Not discernably different to others but that may be a product of how I use it mind?
