Thank you friend. Do you intend to shed some similar version with the Arowchat?

I haven't considered making an Arrowchat-type system as of yet, if that's what you mean.

Yes, exactly. Thanks.

If you can create something and that does not consume a ridiculous amount of processing and queries'm sure the community would be very happy.

Thank you friend.

Firebolt's source code is now available on Github under the MIT license, and I plan to release 1.3.0 within the next few days, featuring a Facebook-like messaging system.
