Why is my privilege token not working?

How do I create an AFK or silent channel?

When creating or editing a channel, set Needed talk power to a value higher than the talk power of your highest user group. Server Admins have 75 talk power by default, so setting Needed talk power to 76 or higher prevents anyone from speaking in the channel unless their talk power exceeds that threshold.
