The idea is to set a password for game rooms so that players who know the password can join without having to be sent an invite. This prevents problems with being disconnected since as is if the DM is disconnected they cannot rejoin their own room if they are dropped.

In addition to being able to set passwords, the DM should be able to change the password mid game incase someone discovers the password / they want to boot one of their players.

Also, maybe we could get a battle map.. :P <-(Sorry, had to throw it in there. I beleive a battle map would be the icing on the cake that makes OPnPW the best option out there)

Ahem.. yeah.. password protected rooms..

Password protected rooms would be an awesome addition, given that 'close viewing' means that as a DM you cant rejoin your own room if you get disconnected!

Yes, and keep out the folk you dont want watching your game. Id say passwords must be between 1 and 32 characters long (so people could actually put a phrase as the password(s)). Also show it at the top of the window so all the players have it handy and the dm too.

While thats being done, please please please increase the character amount for game names. I hate naming specific sessions things and it getting cut off :/ I'm stuck right now using session number (As best as i can remember) for the game name (The Eye of Diiar -- Rilhvanikha and the Sharuvian Princess becomes The Eye of Diiar - S XXX)

Blargh.

On the flip side, I would personally also enjoy "Freechat Rooms", ones where spectators can talk, or are upgraded to users automatically, or something. I'm tired of unspecing people who get dropped and so forth... =\
