Okay, this is my first released hack here on vb.org, been using it in my private forum's with vB2 and finally, I've upgraded this hack for vB 3.0.1.
Introduction: vB pager is a new refined & light paging system that enables authorized users to exchange short & quick messages amongst each other. Unlike the regular private messaging system, the paged user is guaranteed to read your message & reply to it (if you choose this option) instantly & easily.
Features:
You won't need to log on your CP to send a message, just click on the pager icon next to the name of the user you'd like to page! (See Screenshots)
Switch the paging system on or off anytime you wish!
Specify who gets to use the paging system by Usergroup, or even User IDs to send messages to your forum members.
vB Pager users can send pager messages to members of the forum and/or non-registered guests from the WhoisOnline's page.
Optional Anonymity: you can choose to hide your username when paging another user on the forum, & define which Usergroup or User IDs can utilize this option.
Restrict the number of characters in each message: you can restrict the use of this paging system to short messages only by simply typing in the maximum number of characters that can be used. The window comes in with a built-in character counter to enable the user to keep track of the characters typed.
Logs of all incoming and outgoing pager messages member has, can be viewed and deleted.
Logs of all incoming and outgoing pager messages (Deleted and Unread messages) for all members can be viewed and deleted through the Admin CP.
vB Pager 2.0.4 Updates:
- All popup windows are DHTML, so there should be no problem with popup killers. - Logs of all incoming and outgoing pager messages (Deleted and Unread messages) for all members can be set to be Hard deleted, as a new option from vB Pager options in Admin CP.
- Many bug fixes.

It will work with our error for a few times, but keep replying back and forth and about the 5 page you will get the IE page fault and IE or firefox, or am browser will shut down. Its a great hack. Just wish it would work 100%
Whatever happened to the mod that enabled indefinate messaging?
Looking for the same modification, would be nice to have..
So far the HACK seems to be working good, only 1 issue i ran into was the FOOTER code not being inputed on child styles. Not a big deal realy :squareeyed:
