It really is a shame I was hoping for a change or two which on his website said was coming in a few days and then never heard off again.
If the changes had come through (such as allowing admins to create stock that could be traded instead of using yahoo stock trade) i was willing to pay for it, or make a sizeable donation - is there anything simular around that is actually working.
no but i am currently in talks with a coder who is willing to code it for a price so we are speaking to him about coding it and releasing it as a premium mod just like $10 to get it and support for it.

You are? I would be the coder in question and this is the first I've heard of this.
Welcome back zethon.
I hope you are back with some good news
I posted another hack this weekend and started looking into this hack. It works just fine on my board and the code uploaded here is the same code I'm running.
