At all on rocket chat inkscape-user
I just thought of something.
If we have a few years of using chat.inkscape.org with people jumping in every now and then to ask questions, and then someone joins and types `@all hello here's some spam!`
We'd be emailing all the people who ever joined the chat and didn't leave the room (which I figure would be everyone)
Is there a way to turn off the @all functionality for #general and #inkscape-devel (except maybe for the admin?)
Best Regards, Martin Owens
Yes, we could limit the ability to "Mention All" to channel owners and admins. Everyone happy with doing that?

The permissions page allows specifying which roles are allowed to do "Mention All [mention-all]". Currently it is permitted for admin, moderator, owner, and user. It is not allowed for leader, guest, or anonymous. It looks like this would apply to all rooms, not settable on a per-room basis.
I agree it is a spam vulnerability since we don't limit who can register. How about I remove it for the user role?

I just remove @all to normal users. Now can do moderators, owners, admins only.
Ping any to catch @all.
