command so that you can start to moderate the chat room. The moderator plug-in will appear, and all users in the room will be shown
a message informing them that all their messages are being forwarded to the moderator for approval.

moderate a room all user messages are sent to the moderator window message list. Highlight a message and click the

button to have this message posted to the audience, or the
Discard button to remove this message from queue, without posting
it. The

right-clicking on that user's nickname and selecting '

all messages' to return that user back to normal mode.
