[pp.int.general] PiratePad.net - Restriction to 16 Users?

[Ola Nystrom]

I am involved with the hosting if piratepad.net and I will look into the pro
feature set in the next days. I hope to be able to enable the proversion for
free for all pirate parties out there.

Contact me off list if you have suggestions and/or tips
