Guests cannot use the chatroom but members that have joined may.
We have different membership levels that you may compare the options here:

As you can see, the chatroom is the only thing that these non-upgraded members may use. However, after I also spent time in the chatroom chatting with people that have not upgraded their membership only to realize this later, I can see the reason why everyone basically agrees that we should change this setting. I will fix this.

Anyone who registered here regardless of membership was allowed to join in the chatroom from longtime i guess.
This makes the chatroom real unprofessional sometimes.

but alternatively guests can be highlighted in the chatroom and should have very less chat options ex:no private msg,can't be in chat for long time etc.as chatroom is only way they can communicate regarding anything on dnf.

MH, very much appreciated.

The irony of the situation is that allowing Bronze members into chat allowed 'anybody' access to the members here. Obviously again it is undoubtedly the few who once again have spoilt it for the many, however it was a chink in the protection and integrity of the forum.

Again though, many thanks for reading the thread and considering action based on the members wishes.

Jarred - Some of the confusion could also be with usernames being manipulated by the software upon entering the chat.

Most chat software will change (As example only) Username : Sex.com to Sex-com etc ... Also happens when members have spaces in their username I believe.
