This one by Zengum made me laugh.

BTW, is there a way to quote a message and keep the quote within it?

Yes, there is. Nest the quotes. You have to do it manually, because using the quote button for quoting a post containing a quote only carries the outermost text, wraps it in quote tags and drops everything else.

So, copy the entire text of the post containing a quote, paste it into the advanced editor box, manually locate the interior text to be quoted and wrap them in quote tags. I don't know the depth limit of this technique, but I know it works for three or four levels at least.
