There will always be some "chatter" on any forum. It's good, and builds community. I have even provided an area for Off Topic stuff (ie. Lounge).
The problem I have is when idiots flood the forum (ie. Comrad Andre). This is dealt with swiftly and brutally (blocking the entire subnet).
As for bandwidth, this site does about 18 Gigs a week.

That's pretty impressive! How'd you get so popular Aaron?  I guess there's a lot of hobbiests out there impressed by your site (myself included)! Thanks for putting up with the crap you have to put up with to make this possible!
Oh, how did that traffic accident you witnessed go the other day? You mentioned you were involved in the cleanup? Hope nobody was hurt to badly.

I was not actually involved in the accident, just a witness. But yes, I am auto-accident prone. Women usually run into me just after I have done something major to the car.
As for the auto refresh, please pick a more reasonable time. 1 minute is pretty excessive when there are only 20-30 posts a day.
