What do you suggest?

Here is one month of visit stats

Forum has 1,300 on line at one time as a max figure

Moderated guest chats would be good,could have as many as 200 in for one off 'special VIP guests' chat sessions...? But day to day chat probably 50 on line max?

Multi language is of interest

Things to watch out for?

Too risky, will slow server? Just forget chat?

Chat does slow the server. We upgraded our server so our members could chat. We use the flashchat. But we find that we don't get more than about 40ppl tops in the chat room at any given time, and we have 12K members and about 1800 who are on at some point in the day every day on average.

you may want to look at IRC or a hosted solution for that big of a crowd. I have over 10.4k members.

I used flash chat, but I only have 10-12 people in the chatroom max

I use flashchat but would skip to another solution that can handle larger numbers of chatters and has more functionality, if I can find a good one. So far 123flashchat (a different solution than flashchat) seems good, but not optimal and extremely expensive. Tips would be nice.
I have 30K of members/ 5K active members. 120K unique visitors.

i got 7k+ members and i just use either vbshout v3 or a nice new one called inferno vbshout lite which is quite good! other than those all i can recommend is use Flashchat v4?

with vbshout v3 you can restrict who can view or use it and also make it bigger on the screen...

im yet to find better!

Spinifex.

I'd stay away from flash chat.. i've seen some big boards using jIRC scripts.. personally if ur board can handle mgc chat box on 30 second refreshes and 5 min timeout i think its win.

Exactly. Besides, it won't eat up all the bandwidth that you've got.

As google talk has implemented Jabber into their sites and have connected this with Yahoo, MSN and AIM, is there no posibility to do the same?
