Status system overview

When you create a channel, you acquire operator privileges on it. Users with operator privileges can perform the following actions:

1. Change channel settings.
2. Grant and remove operator privileges for any user on the same channel.
3. Remove any user from the channel.
4. Set and remove ‘mute’ status for any user on the same channel who does not have operator privileges. A user with ‘mute’ status on a particular channel cannot send messages to that channel.

User status is indicated with an icon to the left of the user’s name in the users list:

	Normal user, not an operator and not muted
	User with operator privileges
	User is muted
