Just something that users might want to know before they decide to use FlashChat as their community chat solution.

I have the same server setup and I'm migrating from vBChat to Flashchat (because of vB-3.5) and wondering if I'm heading in the right direction. I have over 500 active users and 3500 signed up. I'm curious if vBChat had this 35 crash limitation. We have used it for a few months and knew it was buggy, but it worked and served a purpose. No one appears to have approached the subject of rating chat room add-ons for vBulletin.
