I still don't know how to kick vs ban on CB

[sophiejoy]

This makes me feel dumb because I've been on CB for so long, but I still don't know how to do this ? when I click the "kick/ban" this member option, it only asks me "ban usernamewhatever?" with no option just to kick them out of my room. 90% of the time I just wanna kick them for lurking, but I can't find the option even if I right click!

I know I'm missing something super obvious but IDK what.

Banning somebody automatically kicks them out of your room. Bans expire after 1 month by default.

If you want them permanently banned, go into your chat settings by clicking on the gear icon at the top of your chat room -> scroll to the bottom and find the link that says "View/Edit Bans and Silences" -> find the username you wish to permanently ban and click on where it says "Make Permanent."

If you silence somebody, they are able to continue watching your show, but are unable to type in the chat. Silences expire after 6 hours, and can be converted to bans in the chat settings.

Hope that helps!
