The rooms at Global Village can have a name of up to 39
characters. There are four types of Room's:
Public Rooms - in which all users are allowed.
Private Rooms - where only invited users are allowed.
Passworded Rooms - you need to know the passwd to enter.
Guessname Rooms - where only the users who know that
the Room exists, are allowed.
There are also some other things that the RoomAides or the Sysops
can change in a Room: the Room may allow Anonymous posts, instead of showing
the posts as written by you, all users will see either "*****" or
"*Anonymous*" - depending on if the Room is Anonymous-only, or if you
can choose if you want to post as anonymous or not. The Sysops and
the RoomAide can see who has written the post, however.
Subjectlines are also a thing that the RoomAide or the Sysops
can decide whether to have or not: if the subjectlines are allowed, you
will get a Subjectline at every post in which you can enter the subject of
your post. The subjectlines are also user when <r>eplying to a post.
