If you have been in the chat room before it was killed over a year ago, it'd
show the time spent in char room. Oddly the link still "works" even though it
leads to error page since the chat no longer exists.

Suggestion: remove link tag, convert "Minutes in Chat" to plain text for us old
people.

There's a link on the home page and there is still a help page for it as
well. It's been suggested many times, but never done. As the Bricklink code
is so fragile, chances are something else might break by removing the links.

Or bring chat back!

I've only, according to this, been on chat for less than 3 minutes. Can't
even remember it. I wonder if anything happened since at that time I must have
been less than 10 feedback.

With over 400k minutes in chat, I would have to be removed many times.

Assuming average 30 days, it's 9.5 months or more exact, but over 40 weeks.
Way too much.

It doesn't hurt anything to stay there though. Even if it only takes an
hour to do, does it really matter.

12055:20 Minutes in Chat, gulp, almost 201 hours of my life..
