I've made basic chatboxes before and they kinda stunk but worked fine since
the bts were never public. Im planning on releaseing this new one though so
id like it to look good :)

Ok well you know how most bots have places where the chat of the world can
be seen and you can type in and have the bot say it (ive got that part).
Well to tell you the truth i don't know how to put scroll bars on anything
so i had to use a textbox :( Well which one should i use if i wanted to put
in vertical scrollbars and how do i put those in. And how do i make it
autoscroll (or turn of autoscrolling by a button).

Thanks for any help :)

Use richtext. I have some source code for a chatbot that uses richtext in
VB, and uses color codes, that allow for things like green CA messages, and
bold, black, and gray chat. Email me and I will give it out. Its not
finished, but all the base code is there.
