that wont countdown though, will it?

for it to wait for 5 seconds don't you use #5 ?
wot you are saying will say each line after they say something, not after a certain amount of time

EDIT: tested it, it's working for me

???

it won't come up with the next line after a certain period of time, it'll come up when the other person says something

Brantje, ignore all the above.... To help you properly, the first thing that people should have asked you is:

1) Do you want to use it in an away message, like in an autoresponder (eg: you set your status to away, and if people keep talking to ya, they will be blocked automaticly)

2) Or do you want to use it as a command/quicktext (eg: When you want to block someone you type a certain command and then a countdown will start and after X seconds the contact is blocked)

?

So, what do you want to do with that script? point 1 or point 2?

point 2

then you must make a quicktext:
Plus! > Preferences > Message Helpers > Quick Texts

As alias, put the command you want to use (eg: delayblock) and in the message textfield type:

/me started a countdown to block (!M)
#2#/me will block (!M) in 5
#2#/me will block (!M) in 4
#2#/me will block (!M) in 3
#2#/me will block (!M) in 2
#2#/me will block (!M) in 1
#2#/block (!M)

this will automaticly send a line every 2 seconds. This seems a more appropiate delay for such things then only 1 second, which seems a bit too fast. But if you like you can always make it 1 second though. Just change every "#2#" into "#1#" in that case...

PS: Also make sure there is no space behind or after "#2#/block (!M)"

why
this
#2#?
