What about an options that allow the admin and ONLY admin to log in and stay in the chat like a ghost (invisible for users) so he/she have the possibility to follow the chat without attention from all chat users ??

as a quick fix. you can modify you usersH.php3 or usersL.php3 such that the currentroomquery and otherroomquery will query for all other members of the chat other than those with perms='admin'
you will have to change all the query (either all or that responding to your database).
However, being a quick fix, this only hides the admin from the chatroom panels on the right but does not prevent 'admin enters the room' from being displayed.

I don't like big brother neither. I understand your opinion.
BUT .. Hypothetical:
I you have in you chat a very very crazy users or perhaps a flooder and your moderators cannot stop this person/them (the user(s) must be banish with the * options) then admin must come online.
When the admin comes online the user(s) becomes no flooder, a good chatter etc. then the options that admin could become a ghost will very nice so the admin can see with this on eyes what is going on.
Yes. I know we have the /save options, look in database options etc. but it is not the same like real time seeing ..

something like this...
$currentRoomQuery = 'SELECT usr.username, usr.latin1, usr.status, reg.gender '
. 'FROM ' . C_USR_TBL . ' usr LEFT JOIN ' . C_REG_TBL . ' reg ON usr.username = reg.username '
. 'WHERE usr.room = \'' . $R . '\' '
. 'AND reg.perms != \'admin\' '
. 'ORDER BY username';
you will have to change all the query (either all or that responding to your database).

Hi All!
Hum I don't like very much this idea: I don't want to allow "Big Brother" to enter the chat ;)
Cheers,

Well, after 5 years, the Plus version does this with the lurking feature enabled.

I am curious about the ability of admins to view private messages between users.
Is this a stock feature and/or can it be added?
thank you
