@mrgiblets, am sorry that you have faced load issues. We have some very large sites like Date.com using CometChat without any issues. So there will be some tweaking required to help resolve your issue. Mostly, we will have to re-write your integration and remove the WordPress bootstrap and the load should reduce instantly. We are also launching a fully hosted version of CometChat, so there will be zero load on your server. Please do not hesitate to email me at help@cometchat.com and we will get this sorted out for you.
@mcpeanut, we do NOT make any anti-piracy checks during the standard functioning of the software. As we provide full PHP source code, you can verify this by any developer. We were making a verification call in our older versions when logging into Administration Panel but never during the standard functioning. We are no longer making a verification call even when logging into Administration Panel. Please feel free to email me at the above email address and I’d be happy to clarify any doubts that you have.
Warm Regards,
Andew
CometChat Team
