gah just putting the lyrics doesn't compare to writing them how they're said them but i need this to look semi-official

SO UM HEY while browsing google to find a way to change the chat's appearance to help, well, Google, i found these things called chat hacks! basically, they add a few extra functions to the chat to make it more accessible. there's four primary functions:


 * 1) Pinging (sets a sound for whenever an entry on a set of words is said)
 * 2) an AFK Button (allows you to go to Away without having to wait ten minutes)
 * 3) a Clear button (clears the whole chat for just yourself--is slightly glitchy in that the message for it will overlap with the next message, but it's a minor issue)
 * 4) and an extra PM button that allows you to PM multiple people (i'm not completely sure that this is working correctly, since my trial just ended up with blank messages for my recipients. however, they did not have the hacks enabled, so i theorize that's why)

it also adds a star next to Chat Mod messages, although i personally don't find this too remarkable

Enabling Them
to enable them, it used to be easy and simple: you just had to put two codes on a page that i'd give the link to, and you'd clear your cache a ta-da! however, a while ago Wikia updated to where this method is impossible.

the new method to do it, in my opinion, is still simple, but i could see where someone might have trouble this time. here's a tutorial:


 * 1) Copy the below codes
 * 2) Access your browser's JavaScript Console. for Chrome, press Ctrl+Shift+J while in the chat. Firefox is Ctrl+Shit+K. i don't know about any other browser, but there should be an option underneath a toolbar at the top not to mention those are the only good browsers.
 * 3) paste the two codes into it.
 * 4) press Enter.

if this doesn't work, ask me and i'll try to help. i use Chrome, but i also have access to Internet Explorer and Firefox so i can try to get it to work on them.

Code:
importScriptPage('User:Monchoman45/ChatHacks.js', 'c'); importScriptPage('User:Joeytje50/ChatPMs.js', 'c');
