I agree with the local overrides, mostly what I am (should be) doing at the moment. > And while we're here, I think "autojoin" is a silly concept.

One of your comments in another branch of this thread suggests this would not be possible anymore, also similar to what SamWhited said above: > My argument is slightly different, I'm arguing that removing autojoin > should cause clients that joined automatically to leave automatically. It's not exactly said like this, but I would read this as "if autojoin is false, leave the room and/or don't join it.". You suggest that this would only be the case when first joined automatically though, which is different from what SamWhited said above, and probably fixes the issue I have. -- Maxime “pep” Buquet
