"today's users online", etc.

I don't think el3m3nt was / has been trying to claim creadit for all the hacks he has used that have been written by other users, he only released the file cus me and a couple of other users said that we would like to use it, he wasn't claiming credit in my opinion. I think that he didn't give credit to the original hackers as he feels that no one needs to creadit him if they use any code he produces and perhaps therefore asumed others think the same way, which of course not everyone does.

I do see you point though and el3m3nt should have creadited the original writer of the code and has done now, I don't think he has ever tried to claim the credit for other peoples code, but only for the fact that he managed to merge them in a way people want to use.

nakkid, it was never my intention to claim credit for hacks which i havent written. As NTLDR said, i asked in the beta hacks forum.. if somebody would be interested in this hack. first i wrote this hack just for my website.
