Would work the same as:
Original message details are unavailable.
This is a quote [quote]This is a quote[/quote]

Except without the "Original message details are unavailable".



It would look like this (without the additional padding at the top/bottom):

Original message details are unavailable.

This is a box

[box]This is a box[/box] I'm better than you, but that doesn't mean you're not great!

If you wanted to get extra fancy, you could add something like colors too:

[box color=gold]This is a gold box[/box]
[box color=firebrick]This is a red box[/box]
[box color=forestgreen]This is a green box[/box]

That would give the box a different background color tint. I'm better than you, but that doesn't mean you're not great!

This would be a cool feature. I can see many purposes for it.

Plz enlighten the masses then. I can see four primary uses for this Draco.
1) - Just a box.
2) - A box with text in it.
3) - A box with text outside it.
4) - Hold on to your hats... A box with text inside AND outside of it!

These are just the four primary categories. Add the possibility of having multiple boxes(!!!!!), coloured boxes and the existing options for typing a variety of characters, and the possibilities are literally endless.

If this was already implemented, I would have put 'literally' in a box for extra emphasis.

Ok so what would be the point in adding this though?

A quick example:

Summary of issue:

There are times when you want to simply put a box around something, without having to contort quote feature to make a box.

Adding some color would just help boxed items stand out a little more.

Like, if your clan thread has a list of "Not allowed" and "Allowed" behavior, you could put the "Not allowed" list in a red box, and the "Allowed" behavior in a green box. I'm better than you, but that doesn't mean you're not great!
