what are you going to do with the beam ? why do you want it ?

[Dutchie]

I'm going to add on to the code, fine the orignal creator ask him if I can, then edit it so it flashes different colors, is bigger produces sounds, and make it hurt people, and it lasts till you say /off and ill make it so you need to say /on to put it on. And it can act like a tracer. It would make a good plugin. =)

It's funny, because of a couple of things.

1) If this version was just made why is it "1.1"?
2) He asked you to make a beam, nothing else really. I'm almost certain that you just took this code out of some random plugin you searched for. Unless you really did make it yourself.

edit

EDIT Code removed I know its not my code, he just wanted something that works.

So you critize him for not being able to make it work, then you go and steal someone elses code, put your name on it and claim you made it? Wow, just go away. You FAIL.

1. Next time Dutchie, check who took away your karma, and what made you think i called you a "n00b"?

2. I never criticized him for not being able to make the code.

3. Is this better..
