 Mo> so writing java script isnt programming? thanks for the tips dude!

You do not need to write a single line of JS to customize your 
Synchronet BBS.  Read that a few more times until you understand it.

You *CAN* write custom JS to do certain things, or modify existing JS 
(which doesn't usually require much JS knowledge), but you don't *have* 
to.  That's the point.

Now, since you don't intend to run a BBS anyway, why don't you stop your 
trolling and ..... go away.
