When you hit the 'quote' button it comes up in 'Preview' mode, so you have to be careful to type outside the quote box (outlined in blue). At the bottom of the text box is a tab marked 'BBCode' - clicking that will bring it up in a mode where you can see the code, and it might be easier for you (I find it easier, anyway!) to see where the quoted post ends and the 'end quote' code is. If you want you can go then back to 'Preview' to check that it's all worked OK before hitting 'create post'. Also, if you inadvertently delete the 'end quote' code, the system here will assume that it's all quoted (and add its own code at the end of the whole post) - that might be slightly different from how the vbulletin software used at many other forums behaves (I can't remember now).
