Does the ending of support for these mean forecastfox would not longer work...??

If it targets Firefox and not Pale Moon it doesn't work in 29.2.x.
You need to fork it and change it to make it work.
Please check the license before doing so.

Pentium4Moron as well as that other jerk.. it has been discussed here for YEARS now that ForecastFox is proprietary, all right reserved and the S3 "fixed version" is illegal. Even if you hadn't read those threads (and I know you both have so don't even pretend) you can check this wonderful little page which is being updated on a regular basis: http://developer.palemoon.org/docs/phoenix-extensions/

Are the two of you literally retarded or what?

Not sure about that but it does seem like they have faulty memory banks.

Overdrawn at the Memory Bank, perhaps?

I would say the only retards here are you and that other genius, pretending pale turd is still a viable browser.

We can't do anything against restrictive licenses that forbid forking.
