if the first room has people chatting in it then i dont mind but usually its got several people in it but no one is chatting despite me trying to get the chat going

it used to be better when we were suposed to ask a chatroom op to close the room once we (as the host) was leaving it, then we had the choice of opening a different room
we arnt suposed to open more than one room are we ?
any ways round this ?
