Wire semantics are simple. A members-only room cannot contain someone with an affiliation of 'none'. Therefore if you set someone's affiliation to 'none' they must be removed from the room, regardless of what affiliation they had prior to the 'none' affiliation. Peter is correct too, in that it doesn't make much sense to kick an admin from the room just because they lost their admin rights. But in this case it's up to the client to do the right thing (make them a member) instead. I think your difference is in whether "you" are the user or the client. The user can expect that removing someone from the admin list keeps them in the room, the client can expect that setting an affiliation to 'none' kicks them from the room. Regards, Matthew
