Shoutbox by Siropu

xF2 Add-on Shoutbox by Siropu 1.10.2

No permission to download
Added "Real-Time" mode which allows you to improve performance and server load by calling a JSON file on the server every second, instead of querying the database every x seconds, handling more active users at the same time and performing shout edits and deletes almost instantly.

Please note that while using this option, shouts will be accessible to anyone (who knows what they are doing), so do not use it if you want total privacy.

Also, if bandwidth is a server limitation on your web hosting plan, this option will increase bandwidth consumption.
