Administrative Flash Chat Room Instructions
Bummer Hosting Flash chat supports several levels of user permissions. It is very fast and offers some great options! You can distinguish between normal users, operators, administrators and the server itself. Please not the hierarchy... an operator can kick any normal chat page user or a temporary operator, but they can not kick an administrator, etc.
When you first join the chat-room, you are logged in as a normal user without any special permissions. To become a chat administrator or chat operator use the /pass command as seen below. In order to do this, you will need to know the password for the chat administrator or the chat operator.
The administrator can is the only chat user that can join all password protected and full rooms.
/pass {password} - Use this to become a Flash chat administrator or operator. Lets say the password is "chat_admin", without the quotes. After logging in to chat, you would then type: /pass chat_admin
/user - This returns the chat operator or administrator back to regular user mode. You will need to type the chat administrator or operator password as seen in the following example: /user
