I've been trying to read shoutboxes sometimes, and the bloody thing refreshes on me while I'm reading it! So I have to scroll back down, start reading again, them whammo, refreshed again.
This happens in EVERY game.
Is there a way around this? So that a person can not have to lose their place everytime it autorefreshes?

Read faster. 
Yeah, no, I don't know. I don't think it's too pressing an issue though.

I agree, not top priority. But that's why it's an "annoyance" instead of a "bug." =^)

Sometimes if I want to look in at a game that is being commented on, or has entered the archives, you want to read what happened. That's when it is especially sticky!

I can probably do something about that. It's not a "chat" functionality so the refresh time shouldn't be that high anyway.

I think it's set to refresh between 10 and 20 seconds. Maybe a minute or two would be more appropriate.
