time. When invited to a room, if the person being invited accepts the<br />

invitation, it can force them out of the room in which they are<br />

currently chatting (depending on other settings). While you cannot<br />

completely stop mass-invites, you can configure the server kill them<br />

<strong>with</strong> this option.<br />

– Hide Security Messages—check this option to prevent members from<br />

seeing security messages.<br />

– Block Connections from Open Proxies—check this box to disallow<br />

connections from open proxies such as Wingate<br />

– Maximum Rooms a user can be in—enter the number of rooms a<br />

member in which a member can reside simultaneously. If you want to<br />

force a strict one room at a time, this is where you set it (because it will<br />

affect IRC clients as well as the java users).<br />

General Room Configuration—click this link to change settings pertaining<br />

to chat rooms.<br />

– Allow users to create rooms on the fly—check this box to allow<br />

members to create new rooms simply by joining them. The rooms<br />

cannot necessarily be registered, unless that option is selected.<br />

– Show registered rooms <strong>with</strong> 0 users—check this box to list all<br />

registered rooms in the rooms tabs, even if no members are currently<br />

in the rooms. If your community has a lot of registered rooms, you may<br />

wish to uncheck this box so that only the rooms that are currently in<br />

use will be displayed in the list. Rooms not showing in the list can still<br />

be joined by the command /join #name-of-room.<br />

– Allow registered rooms—check this box to allow rooms in your<br />

community to be registered. If this box is unchecked, not even an<br />

administrator can register a room.<br />

Note<br />

If this box is unchecked after rooms have been registered, those rooms will act<br />

as unregistered rooms. An unregistered room sets the community so that<br />

when someone in the moderator list for the room joins the room, that member<br />

is not be granted moderator status unless he or she is the first person to join<br />

the room.<br />

– Owners Control Transcripts—check this box to allow only room<br />

owners to enable or disable transcripts for specific rooms at will.<br />

Unchecked, only administrators can turn transcripts on and off.<br />
