But you can use epochconverter for adding the time of quoted post.

Nice tools, I wasn't aware about their existence. That should solve the problem for long and specially formatted topics. However, the procedure is still quite complicated and I guess most users don't know about it (including myself)  Cheesy

For everyone who has experienced this, I know how you feel. Lol.

Anyways what I normally do is just use the link of that post and somehow give a gist of what I want to quote in there. Just by clicking on the #49321059 on the post and pasting it as a reference. This is when I quote in bitcointalk.
Same here, I'm copying the text (unformatted) and post a link to the original post in the locked topic. It's working but I like normal (real) quotes much more...
