This broadcast script was released a long time ago by Colandus.
I have re-coded it, added new features, updated it and it works.

JDB -- Updated/New Features
Colandus -- Original Idea
data/lib/data.lua: -- Add to bottom of data.lua
data/talkactions/talkactions.xml:
data/talkactions/scripts/player_broadcast.lua
I hope everyone likes this script,
it took me a while to figure this whole script out.
Hopefully it will be usefull to many people, I tried to explain it well.
How it works:
Prices: Each letter has a certain price; [local basePrice].
---
Levels: The player level decides the price basically.
The higher of level you are, the more the message will cost.
---
Length: Of course the length of the message will determine the price also.
