If someone wants to run it on a game that doesn't support colorchat, I'll release such a version. This is not my only plugin that uses colorchat, so I definitely won't edit all plugins that do if there's currently no need for it.

There's no option to select multiple mods, is there? If I set it to "Counter-Strike", that won't be true either, so "All" is the best choice here IMO.

Why? There are 0 benefits from doing that and a ton of disadvantages.
  • Can you compile the plugin? No, because it has a custom include.
  • Can you compile the ReAPI version of it? No, because the ReAPI libraries are not there.
  • Can you compile it if it uses AMXX 1.8.3? No, because the compiler is running on 1.8.1.
  • Is publishing a new version of the plugin easier that way? Absolutely not. This is not the only place I publish my plugins, so I'd rather choose not to upload them here at all rather than having to do it manually every time which will eventually result in me giving up on updating it here, so people will download an outdated version.
  • Can you download and use the plugin at the moment? Yes, so your suggestion is pointless.

If you want to find the download link, you usually scroll to the very bottom of the post and you see a big DOWNLOAD button, which is exactly what I have done. I don't see how a small download text is easier to find than a normal-sized image.
