No way. Going through this recently on the HG forums, I know on a good day 100 users could easily share 25 mysql connections. Conversely, if something isn't working right, a single user could fill all 25. Really, on oversold shared servers the problem is usually cpu load anyway ("4.0 per cpu is acceptable" AAAGH).
I use that chatbox (as a shoutbox) and don't get the bots. Odd that some people do.
