Hi,<br /><br />Ok, a client has found a script that he 'Just has to have' and upon downloading and reading the readme I found some stuff which I was inclined to ask about before I installed the script.<br /><br /><!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->GTChat Forum has the board Servers and Providers where users can exchange their expirience.

Moving for organization.<!--content-->
