Board Thread:Script Suggestions/@comment-5301680-20170630101854/@comment-11733175-20170705065014

@OneTwoThreeFall Granted, the extra requests are not an ideal situation, but I question whether quibbling over two requests is all that worthwhile in the grand scheme of things when the average user has dozens of HTTP requests added by advertising. 2 more is a raindrop in an ocean.

Caching would be a nice-to-have, but making it fixed is likely to cause weird issues down the line, especially if you add a new message the script now relies on and the script's cache updates before the messages do. Adding a timestamp parameter to the script seems like an unnecessary burden for an author when it's meant to be as pain-free as possible. For the time being, I don't think it is a particularly pressing issue.
