Skip Title Once

XP + VX + ACE

by Kyonides

Introduction

This simple scriptlet was created after a fellow forumer had posted a thread asking for such a thing to be published here.

I don't recall any other script at this point so I'm simply posting it here.

This doesn't mean that there are not similar scripts on the web, guys.
