## Problem/Question Hi! what’s the rational / reason of not allowing the General war room to be deleteable? It seems like a technical constraint that’s been set from your side. Can we at least rename it? Thanks! ---

@gr0g Thanks for using Cloud. The General is a War Room where all members of a space are in. It cannot be deleted. Can you please elaborate on why you want to delete it or rename it? ---

Greets and thanks again for an awesome product! In my case, I don’t want my users / members to drop into a default room… (this isn’t some kind of chat) I’d like each member to be specifically assigned to one or more rooms or none 🙂 Design wise General also seems to be the “default room” ← can we add a flag to set which room is the default / main one? It feels like there’s some technical constraint / decision that this is representing and I’m wondering if you even need it (first time I encounter it as user in your product) Thanks! ---

@gr0g Thanks for the added context. Although I can’t speak about the product decision, this sounds like a topic appropriate for #feature-requests:cloud-fr If enough people vote for it, perhaps the [@netdata-product](https://community.netdata.cloud/groups/netdata-product) team will prioritize it. Best, Odysseas ---

@gr0g The rationale with having a General War Room is that it will be the main War Room where collaboration from all users within a Space can happen. ---

@Manos_Saratsis yep I get it - but its being forced on the user to have that defined. (not saying a good or bad thing, just noting that) (you guys decide 🙂 ) @OdysLam thanks! I’m happy to close this etc. Thanks again folks!! p.s: would be awesome to have a URL / link in the community email notifications back to the thread ---

@gr0g It cannot be deleted or renamed and we do not plan to offer the capability for now. Thanks for using Netdata Cloud!
