Problem is, Live Topics are a super server intensive mod. It was ok when we had a smaller community, but the more people and posts we were getting, the more pressure was put on the server, to a point where even the main site started acting slow. All other mods and, well, stuff, doesn't use so much CPU. Also, music is using bandwidth, not CPU, so it doesn't make any difference. Well, it could have been worse, Boyd wanted to change to IPB, again. Took me couple hours in total to get him of the idea.

Live Topics was when a page would auto refresh with new post as they were submitted ^__^

Oh wow, I didn't realize it was doing that much damage O_O Well, I'm sure we can get used to it ^__^ Just think of it this way, by the time you go and post in other threads, the one you're keeping an eye on will have new post already ^^

That's how resource intensive it is that it puts a hefty strain on the CPU of a dedicated server. With live topics gone I think it also blew out AJAX refreshing. In other words, it would display the latest post when you hit the reply button. Different from auto-refresh in that auto-refresh doesn't require you to do anything.
