That's right, LK, I almost forgot about that. Can you give us a list of the other servers (URLs) that would work with this hack?
What I've don is create an imaginary SOp user called Gunther. My members know who he is and that he's just there to keep the room open. Since I have two computers in my office I just log on the the chat with one as Gunther early in the day and leave him there so the room is open. We get a kick out of Gunther.
