No, not true. If I had wanted the whole post I would have left it like this:

Alternatively copy and paste the bit you want to quote, and precede it in your reply by [ QUOTE ] and put [ /QUOTE ] at the end, omitting the spaces I've typed... otherwise I would have got

but there's nothing stopping you editing the quote to emphasis the point you wish to quote as I did in two posts above.
