HackForums userscript - HF news notifier [1.0.9]

Hey,

Because of https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=2868516 thread in the suggestion area I decided to make a userscript who checks if there is a new news topic posted.
The script uses cookies, checks if there is a update once every 30 minutes and is made in Javascript. Source can be viewed anytime (link below).

Only fully tested on Google Chrome, I have tested it on Firefox and it worked but I haven't fully tested it fully for bugs.

Please report any bugs if you find them,

Enjoy. 🎉

I think this is very cool! I have seen many request this.
Are there any other cool userscripts for HackForums? Can you post any trusted ones?
Will these pick up all the ones that are barely made as a new topic.
I only Deal on HF, Ask for PMs to Verify or I will not be held Responsible

Check the ones from Spafic and xerotic.

It just checks if there is a new normal thread made (no sticky) and it notifies you.

This look interesting, I'll definitely check this out!

Thanks for this.
I was looking into userscripts a couple hours ago actually. I think this is a good idea for those who were in favor of the idea or would like to be updated on the news. I'm glad it Omni didn't put this into the site(yet), I don't read the news and would of found it be annoying.
PM to verify any trade deals

The news is actually pretty interesting, and I doubt Omniscient ever adds it since it will cost allot of bandwidth since you have to load settings and the news page every single time someone enters the forum.

It's pretty cool, but I don't really care for the news on HF.

If you enjoy this idea, please show your support on that thread above.
It will help to make something like this more official, and help others find out about the HF News.

The point of the notification was to inform people that never heard about the news!
We need something official so everyone has it installed but nice job anyways!
