It doesn't look like it's really accomplishing a whole heck of a lot and doesn't seem terribly popular, so unless someone can give me a good solid argument I think it might get itself shut down so we can make way for other projects.

I've never used them on any forum.  So it makes no odds to me.  I'll stick to derailing threads.  :D

I'm glad the shoutbox is gone. I read this forum using my mobile phone sometimes and the shoutbox is what slows things down.

Good call on keeping the chat even if it's just for a little while longer or not :tu: Some may use it more than others and it's something different for the time being :D
