I had it once on Habbling

It kept disconnecting users and it deems to be abused by moderators deleting shouts and such.

Also it uses alot of of b/width.

I don't reccomend them they slow down your whole forum too much. .

Yeh an also that


That's why when HxF had it they put it down the bottom of the forum as it give priority to the forums to load

It did, got users banned though due to abusing it by flooding it and such.

I don't see why they don't just delete people who have not been active for 60 days surely that will speed up the forum a little bit and reduce some disk space and some bandwidth.

It's good cause people can chat live and faster to each other I had one on y vbulletin.

[---MAD---]

instead of a shoutbox, you could get flash chat or another chat and intergrate it with the forum.
Its alot better and its more "live" as its instant like an IM.

They're too stuck up with the thought that if they delete users, they won't look as popular :|
