Sorry for asking, but why we need this?

Can be used as an example for logging into other sites too Consider this as a snippet/tutorial.

Instead of noobs asking coders to write them expensive bots, they can read and learn from snippets to write their own for free. And as this is 'dev area'. I don't see why I can't post snippets?

btw logging in to filesonic works the same way, you just have to change the url. Makes more sense than wupload, which is dying right now..

Use the API where you can. It's faster, and the overhead is lower.

What LT said.

Also, I see how you're thinking but newbies will not learn. They expect full scripts that work out of the box with fancy GUIs, they have no idea what to do with snippets.

+1 Jmz.

Unless they are willing to learn; something you will find is quite the rarity in this forum.

Nah newbs like me take such classes, modify it according to our needs and make scripts
