I've seen in the past that several of you use FlashChat and decided to buy a $5 license myself to play with it.

It says it's designed to work with UBB.threads in an integration; well, it says it can't find my config file during install, so I emailed the owner, like a week ago, no response. Tried emailing him numerous times since then, no response.

So I post on a thread that another UBBer started months ago on their "support forum" which had, no helpful response. Then last night I posted "So what, this Darrin guy has no problem taking our money, but refuses to do any type of support? I just want this thing to install" and I finally get an email! But, it was from the forums, saying I have a "warning" for "harassing" another member... Evidently saying I want this trash script to work is against their terms of service...

So here it is for you all, FlashChat and it's "support" is a joke... And this isn't the first script I've bought from the place either, I've owned The Ultimate Family Tree (the script his domain name is based around) for eons (at least 6 years); I won't be going back.

I've just been over there for a look-see and it appears quite a few UBBers are using it/ having difficulties with it.

Has anyone gotten it working?

I haven't, and I tried emailing "Darrin" like 5 times now and no response; it's to the point now that I just sent a request in to PayPal about a refund (It's $5, but it's the principle; ANY script I produce I support, yet this guy can't even be bothered to blow smoke up my keister).

I completely agree with you.

...and being as there is no smoke without fire if other unsatisfied customers did the same, Paypal may react and Darrin would need to support his scripts.
