User reviews

I used to use this extension a lot and it was wonderful, but I cleared it when I finished homestuck. Right now I'm re-reading problem sleuth on the new site. Unfortunately, because of the site change, it no longer works. Are you considering fixing it in the near future? that would be great. thank you!
