Description

Description:

creating a new Channel that is public but write protected leads to Owner is muted and nothing that is written afterwards is visible

Server Setup Information:
  • Version of Rocket.Chat Server: 0.60.3 Merge pull request #9320 from RocketChat/release-0.60.3
  • Operating System:m Linux
  • Deployment Method(snap/docker/tar/etc):?
  • Number of Running Instances: 1
Steps to Reproduce:
  1. create new Channel
  2. set it to public
  3. enable write protection
Expected behavior:

Whenever the Owner writes something it will appear normally.

Actual behavior:

when you write something, rocket cat informs you it is muted

Usecase

Sometimes you have to send info to people without cluttering the #general channel, for instance like the whereabouts of devices checked out from the pool. so all know where to ask for it. You need no responses, strictly one way.
