ULX TIMEOUT

This is a simple addon to ULX that will teleport a naughty player to a set location (should be a corner) and freezes them there so they get to think about what they have done!

Commands:

!timeout <player> <seconds for timeout>

Soon to add:

HUD saying "YOU ARE IN TIMEOUT"
!settimeoutspot command
!untimeout command

Some criticism for ya

1.  the function ulx.freeze I do not believe you need?

2.  You better check to make sure the player hasn't disconnected.  (ply and ply:IsValid() in timer)

3.  Possibly make the position save?  Might just make the addon overly complicated.

4.  A max timeout of 100 seconds is kind of small, increase it or have no limit?

5.  Is calling ulx unfreeze necessary?

I just meant a way to save position over map changes and such.  It just seems like setting it every time would be annoying.
