Notice it's not my name? So stop crying like a baby. Thanks. And if I was, I'd be sure to spend that $20 on crack.

You are a jerk get off the site if you re going to be a jerk

[wmlvb]

whoever is the creator of this chat box please return my donation and I will I will uninstall and get mods that dont have jerks answering support question!

[wmlvb]

I am uninstalling I refuse to have a mods that has jerks answering support question! Please stop telling me to read. I sent PM the coder to get my donation back. When you are no longer giving support on this mod I will consider adding back but not until then. Now go away

Let this be a lesson to everyone! Do not donate until you are sure of the support!

[VBDev]

Wow wow guys calm down. This thread is not the place to get fighting !

Ranger187, I know the question of wmlvb was perhaps not very fair but it's not a reason to be rude with him at first answer.

wmlvb, insulting others is not a good thing too ...

The fact is yes you have to read instructions to get the new version. But there is no need to bump him out just because of that question.

Don't blame Ranger187 for giving support. I didn't ask him to do support for me but he does it to help when I am not around that's all.

I am going to report posts so that they get removed there is no reason for those fightings to stay.
