Chesterfield Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Peanuts in the grand scheme of things. More concerned with server load at the moment while we get things sorted. As soon as most of the major problems are corrected, we shall upgrade the chat room if the demand is still there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilp Posted October 23, 2012 Author Share Posted October 23, 2012 cool mate, not a problem mate! Appreciate you getting back to us on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhatter Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Other option could be to change to ShoutBox (free addon for IPboard) instead of using their IPChat. I'm going down that route for the club I manage - hope it helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chesterfield Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 We have to be concious of server resources. Chat systems take up a lot more cpu time than you would think. Solutions like Shoutbox are hosted locally, while ip.chat uses remote resources. The annual cost of upgrading to the 20 user version of chat that uses remote resources would be far cheaper than upgrading the server to cope with a 20 user chat system locally.

Madhatter Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Ah wasn't sure what infrastructure you're using - I've got a dedicated box sitting behind our site. Could even go old school and run IRC then use a java based IRC editor. Runs full services on user's computers and IRC channel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andlid Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Google hangout? Anyway 5 is a bit lame now when people actually seem to be using it, looked at the cost so obviosly that's not an issue, resources might be a bigger one though! Did you look into Amazon hosting?
