Chat Rooms & Moderation

[freezingHOT]

But shouldn't there be a way to unban? Should a moderator go rogue and be (excuse my language) an A$$..... and start banning people against the owners wishes? That kills a room right there but there is no solution except to make a new room which i find useless whether it works or not. To use a room for example "The Ways of Hell (ROLEPLAYERS ONLY PLEASE)"...someone went rogue and banned alot of people and they had to recreate the room calling it #2..yet the old room remains on the list but nobody talks in there anymore EVEN THE CREATOR!!!!...sorry for the rant i just think that this should be looked into and if at all possible to maybe update the chat feature to include a list of banned names for the owner(s) expenditure to affectively makes sure that no one is misusing there power and that he/she may fix said problem should it arise

_{I have to agree. The same happened with OMGPirates and a second one had to be created with an exclamation mark after it. However, I guess the best that can be done right now is to be more careful when choosing moderators. Swiftor mentioned in a live Q&A that moderators/owners should only ban users if they don't ever want to see the user in the room again, so that should be a rule of thumb for all chatrooms to go by, so we have to act rationally, as if chatroom resets were nonexistent, seeing as they aren't done too often.}

actually, there is no way unless the room dies && it has to be recreated.

Where do I look if I wanna see a list of things moderators/owners can do in the omgpop chat rooms? Like bold facing their font, using special characters, etc.

I'm pretty sure owners and mods can't do any of the things you listed. Owners can only mod/unmod and owner/unowner, and kick/ban people. Mods can only kick/ban people.
