Change Log:
--------------------
v1.07
Updated for patch 4.3
Improved the idle timer
v1.06
Fixed an issue where non-standard ascii characters were not being recognized when trying to add a player to a Personal Use list.
v1.05
Added an "Idle" event that can send a message after the lgihtwell has not been used for a given period of time.
You can now create new lists of messages that will be sent to specific players when they use the lightwell. There is not limit to the number of unique lists you can have, and there's no limit to how many players can be on one list. An individual player may only be on one list at time.
Improved the GUI for controlling the blacklist
Blacklist is no-longer case-sensitive
v1.04
Fixed an error that was triggered when the lightwell disappeared early where all of the arguments were not being passed to the message function.
You can now blacklist someone by targeting them and typing /lwb blacklist
Lag with the server allows extra charges to be used before the Lightwell Renew HoT has been applied. Lightwell Buddy will now detect when extra charges are consumed when people double-click the lightwell, improving the accuracy of the LWB's count. If all goes well, the early disappearance event will no longer be triggered when extra charges are consumed. Instead, a new event has been added with its own list of messages that can be sent when extra charges are consumed.
--v1.03
Minor update to fix typographical errors in tooltip descriptions.
--v1.02
New options have been added to the configuration window for the following features:
The table "blacklist" has been added. When players whose names are in this table use the lightwell, a message will not be sent. Only applies to the "Use" event.
To prevent lightwell message spamming, the variable useCD has been added to specify a cooldown time in seconds between sending messages. After sending a message, no messages will be sent until the cooldown time has passed. Only applies to the "Use" eve...
Description:
--------------------
Using a customizable list of phrases, this AddOn randomly selects a phrase and sends it to the channel of your choice when your lightwell is summoned, clicked, or expires. It can send different messages when a charge is wasted(clicked by someone above a certain threshold of health), when the lightwell is fully emptied of charges, when it expires with charges remaining, when it disappears, and when it has been idle without use. Messages can use placeholders to include the player's name, the user's name, the max charges, the number of charges remaining/consumed, idle time, and time past/remaining on the lightwell. Use it to notify your group that you've placed a lightwell and to thank, entertain, or scold your teammates for using (or not using) your lightwell.

Try giving your lightwell a personality or theme! Turn it into a fortune telling machine, or whisper little sweet nothings to those who click it. Make your lightwell as creative, witty, sexy, mean or funny as you like. Messages are completely customizable, and there's no limit to the number of messages you can program into it.
In Game Configuration Window:
Thanks to Takkix's efforts, Lightwell Buddy now has an in-game configuration window. You can add/edit/delete messages, and control what channel messages are sent to from this window.

Chat Spam
There's a fine line between fun and entertaining messages and chat spam that annoys people. Consider sending your messages to whisper or emote. Smaller messages are more likely to be read and enjoyed than large walls of text. You can also configure th...
