[cod] monitoring script

[Ian mu]

Well so far no one else has actually offered an alternative that will work
"properly", yet I've offered to rewrite one for nothing that would be
available in the public domain, think if thats the attitude naturally why
would anyone bother, and not surprising not many scripts are out there if as
soon as someone offers they get slagged off.
 Any yes, this reply is just as bad as the previous 2. Just curious way to
slag people off who offer to help. (and people who know me know I will spend
ages coding for others for no gain, thats pretty much all I do)
 Why not a simple "thanks for the offer, but would prefer a solution already
done"? Why does everyone have to get bitchy when people offer help?
 Christ on a bike, is this what you all do when people offer help?
 /me shrugs
