for me, GO

Lot's of you post away in it and it's 99% of the time stuff that should be in a forum post, forums posts are useful and good for the site as they create discussion. Shouts are utterly useless for the site.

Use to be useful when askin who was about and for them to get on Irc or Vent - thats what i mostly used it for.

Also good for a quick rant - i dont want to post a forum about my bad day at work id rather shout about it!

Plus that silly one word game we do it in amuses me and keeps me coming back

I agree, it's good for random short stuff that is too small to go in a forum thread.

Maybe some one word games to keep it going? lol

honesly i dont have time to open threads and make long posts from work - the shoutbox lets me comment on how much people suck without having to trawl through threads and find a decent place to insult them.

imo, keep it -- but maby put thread highlights in in...

like when a new thread is created it posts a shout announcing it?
