Pasting text into the quote window

Just curious about this, and I feel that this hasn't always been this way, but maybe it was and I never noticed.
I copy text from a link, a couple of paragraphs, but it gets pasted as just one big paragraph.
So this
instead of this
in case it wasn't clear what I was explaining. My work around instead of going in and hitting "Enter" after each paragraph is to paste it again. But this time in the message window and not using the quote button. I use chrome in case that matters.
Nothing marjor. Just curious. The quote function not being able to recognize spaces between paragraphs?

quote:
The problem, of course, begins with a four-man bench, which is really a three-man bench because you can't really use the backup catcher. The other problem is the four bench players: Garcia is the only backup infielder, as Pham and Hazelbaker are strictly outfielders. Once Garcia entered, Matheny couldn't double-switch with him, Wong or Jedd Gyorko because he didn't have another non-first-base infielder. If you're dumb enough to carry only four bench players, you need two who can play the infield. If Matheny had that player, he would have double-switched Broxton in Gyorko's spot in the lineup, because Gyorko had the made the final out of the top of the eighth. But Garcia was already in the game, so he couldn't do that. Or, he should have put Broxton in Pham's spot, two spots lower than Holliday's spot. With a short bench, it's almost impossible to use defensive replacements. Just too much of a chance you run out of players.

It's better to copy and paste to your message then highlight it, and then click "quote".
If you are quoting long text.

I feel like it's always been like that, if I'm quoting a sentence or two I paste it into the quote box. Multiple paragraphs, I paste in the body then highlight and quote.

But it wasn't always? I want to say I didn't have to do it at some point but I might be wrong.
