Removing guests from a channel

  • Only an admin or channel creator can remove a guest from a channel, regardless of whether it’s public or private.
  • Guests cannot remove anybody from a channel.
  • When a multi-channel guest is removed from a channel, they may become a single-channel guest if they are only now in one channel.
