Wow, I came into our Beanstalk chat room today to check in. To my surprise, I had already talked to someone in the room and was really rude about it. Someone entered the room as “Chris N” and pretended to be me, then continued to be a complete ass to the poor customer. Here is a screen shot. Maybe some “official” member marker would be useful for these scenarios in open rooms? Dan, if you see this, please get in touch. So sorry.

Ouch. What an ass. Sorry, man. Come to think of it… people could pretty easily pretend to be you guys and ask unsuspecting customers for sensitive login credentials, too.
I don’t know of a Campfire-specific solution aside from “have a Wildbit employee present 24/7 to boot fakes”, but that seems unreasonable. Maybe only have the room open when an employee is present?
