This is correct. As well as pulling the text from the database and the like, it would require an immensely more flexible programming language than vbulletin boards use. I dabbled in PHP, Java, basic HTML, Visual Basic and other various forms of web systems.dev about 8 years ago at University, and was scoring 80% on a couple my projects throughout the 3 years. In fairness I was more of an operating systems man, but to block the quotes the coder would need a programming language which allowed him to override the ignore option and block replicas, and altered replicas (due to the addition of italics, quotes, formatting differences on the page code due to the text being in a different place). VBulletin boards are fairly basic so no chance of that. Not that I am an expert anymore in web, but pretty easy to tell from common sense. surprised anybody needs to ask really, 5 seconds of common sense and you're sorted.
