Time to get rid of chat/shoutbox

Default Time to get rid of chat/shoutbox



I think it is about time we get rid of the shoutbox since it is not much benefit to us. It just adds extra load on server and hassle for me to update it. If you want to quickly communicate with other members, you have profile visiting message and private messaging.

I want to take some feedback from you before I go ahead with this idea

Is the load really that much that it's causing the server to slow down? If yes then yes. If not then I guess you can keep it for a while.

I don't see any benefit of it, it will be good if we have two shoutboxs one for brothers and the other for sisters to their private sections to avoid free mixing, but since we don't have that much active sisters to have one I think it's just a load on the server
So yeah I think it's better to get rid of it, we have visitor msgs instead

Walikum assalam,

Please NO! This is something which we only IL have! It is the mouth of the forum. People love it on forums as far as I know. We can use it to have live Dawah with Non-Muslims!

I dont think that it takes so much load that we are facing any difficulty so I guess let it be there!

how many people actually use it? and there is no benefit of it. Early on when it was added it was because we had it on the old forum. Live da'wah, huh? the forum itself is live da'wah! Plus we do not have many non-Muslims and those who come they want to debate.
