Hey bud. I think you installed it wrong..... Seems to me it's missing a js file. I suggest uninstalling (FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS TO THE T!) And reinstalling it. If ya need help, you can also IM me on Aim or Yahoo.

Didn't look like that at the beginning:

I've already gone to another chatbox for the time being since I'm on 4.0.

And then...

I'll point out that YOU ARE BEING RUDE! Seriously. Get a grip on yourself. This is just a mod and they are just developers and they don't do this for you. And if you are talking about the paid version, then take it to his site. But stop being so rude to people who offer you a modification for free. They don't owe you a thing here.

[maidos]

Ranger187. to private not obvious!
i referred to your previous replies. And yeah this place is free and if u paid u arent expected to go here and complain about it, go to his site there. if ur just another ungrateful user who are getting this script for free, you are in no position to have demands
