As of now there are only 2 ways to close #spectator
1. spectate someone else
2. go to Channels and right click #spectator (this causes a bug though: http://osu.ppy.sh/forum/t/172218 )
My spectator is open like every day all day long and it's pretty annoying to just have closed #spectator after it being a dead channel for a while, and then it immediately opens up again right after you resume to play in multiplayer and then turns into a dead channel tab again.
I'm sure more people love to read their #spectator but dislike to have tabs open that they don't use at the moment.
