Actually, it mildly does. But not enough to generate further discussion. All quoting does is prove that in addition to the quoted post, another person agrees.
Adding a modifier that such contributions are conditional relative to the situation in question, I agree. In many cases, quoting what someone else has said amounts to a nod of assent, a feature of real dialogue which is conspicuously absent from most forms of electronic communication. Sometimes, however, it's the case that quoting is done for other reasons.

Now after this, please don't come into this topic and start doing it just to be ironic/annoying.
I REALLY enjoyed seeing this.
