Greasemonkey is a popular and powerful add-on to the Firefox browser that allows JavaScript script files to be run on any web page. This allows users to alter the client side page to aid with usability and to improve on the features that the page already contains.
The scripts are user created, normally with the intention of providing more information or reformatting of the already present information on a specific web page.
These types of scripts can be very powerful, but remain limited to the information that is provided by the server to the web browser.
Requirements
Greasemonkey is an add-on for Firefox web browser. Therefore to use Greasemonkey scripts you must also use Firefox. Firefox is the second most used web browser available is said to be much better then Microsoft Internet Explore for speed and security.
To download and install Firefox, visit this page: Get Firefox.
Once Firefox is downloaded and installed. Download and install the Greasemonkey add-on: Install Greasemonkey.
The add-on will prompt you to restart Firefox, don’t worry, Firefox remembers the pages you where visiting so in most cases this page should be available to you once you have restarted Firefox.
GameForge and InnoGames
Some scripts may not be verified by Gameforge or Innogames. This might be due to it not yet being reviewed by a Gameforge or Innogames developer or because they have not approved the script. This does not mean the script will be harmful, but means that for one reason or another Gameforge or InnoGames do not want users using the script. Furthermore, it has been know for Gameforge to approve a script for use on one language server, but deny that very same script on another.
It is impossible for Gameforge or InnoGames to know who is using a illegal script on their games, however, users that choose to gain from the benefits of such scripts, do so at their own risk.
A list of approved and non approved greasemonkey scripts can be found in the dedicated game categories on this site.
