I don't think the CB being availible to everyone would kill forums activity for 2 reasons

A) We have a shit ton of members who battle and never post in the forums (but read them) getting them in chat would be a way to get them involved in that.

B) the people who post in the CB use the forums heavy still. the Gen talk is pretty DAMN active and increasing, TeXt lounge has stayed active, if anything activity is higher. we're not BBE . BBE was the way it was for other reasons. a site like LB can have a CB availible to all and actually get MORE forum activity.
