Not really a bug per see, but definitly something the devs would want to look into. When someone is kicked from an alliance they will still be able to see the alliance chat until they actually refresh their browser window. If the window stay up it will potentially be possible to participate in the alliance channel days or weeks after you left or where kicked from the alliance. Even upon joining a new alliance, the channel changes name but will still show the content of the old alliance (again until you refresh the window).
While not a big issue, it can in some instances lead to problems, for instance if someone is kicked for beeing a spy... I would suggest that a change in alliance status should sever the connection to the game if possible (or at least chat) forcing the player to reload his game window.
I believe the tab that is open eventually shuts down itself if the player has been idle for too long, at least, it happens for me when I leave it open and head off to sleep.
Although, this does sound like it could be an issue, perhaps a server refresh every so often could be implemented?
I used to have to reload my games at least 2 times per day. Not sure what happened, but I've had my game window open now for 3 days and it's still running strong... So yeah, definitly an issue...
Guess someone's gonna have to look into it then.
