Summary0002737: SVSNICK and Nick Collisions
DescriptionUsing SVSNICK to change the case of a nick causes a nick collision. I am not sure if this is meant to be like this, but I am sure someone won't want it to do that someday. Example in Additional Info

Additional Information-> :Service SVSNICK nick NICK <time>
<- :nick!user@host QUIT :Nickname collision due to Services enforced nickname change, your nick was overruled

Confirmed here (1.1.1.1.2.1.2.1.2.2234.2.399).
I think it's strange. Why it should work like this..?

why should a svsnick be used to change cases in a nick's letters?

good point, theres not much tactical reason in doing this.
though for nets who like to play, screwing with someone's nick is fun.

I guess you could say consistancy really. If you do a /nick that's just a case change you don't get an error, it just changes your nick (probably doesn't even f* with the timestamp but I dunno about that). In fact, it seems the same is true if you do a no-op /nick (//nick $me in mIRC, for example). So why should SVSNICK work differently? :P
