Sometimes deactivating users won't kick them out of any room

[Kimiblock]

I wanted to use another server_name, so @kimiblockmoe:moetrix.kimiblock.top was deactivated. But the account itself is not kicked from any room.

There isn't any log (level is warn) when deactivating (16:08 in my TZ).

Logs prior to deactivation:

Admin command for user deactivation was changed to default to always leave rooms to prevent this from happening again. A feature request for resetting your power level in each room to the room default power level was created #446

[Kimiblock]

Thanks! but if admins already deactivated themselves, will conduwuit auto-leave all rooms for them after upgrading?

…

No, this isn't possible to determine. A possible workaround would be creating an account with the same username as the previous account / resetting the password for that account to login to it again and leave the rooms; however since you said you re-used your server name, the event auth failures may be "expected" as servers are enforcing signatures on events and notice your server signing key is mismatched with what they have.

Since the ones you posted are soft failures, they aren't being out right rejected, but it will make them delayed to appear for other servers in the room.

If re-using a server name, servers will fully start accepting everything from you with no failures or issues after about 2-5 days.
