[IRCServices] ping timeouts..

[Tyson La Tourrette]

After further testing here is what I found.

The first string recieved is broken:

   [Sep 11 10:35:40.403421 1999] debug: Sent: :Global MODE Global +oi
   [Sep 11 10:35:40.403733 1999] debug: Received: :i
   [Sep 11 10:35:40.404340 1999] debug: Received: c.cat.pdx.edu NOTICE AUTH :*** Looking up your hostname...
   [Sep 11 10:35:40.404650 1999] unknown message from server (c.cat.pdx.edu NOTICE AUTH :*** Looking up your hostname...)
   
After the EBURST command is recieved and logged that services doesn't know what it is the next string is broken:

   [Sep 11 10:35:40.413894 1999] debug: Received: :irc.cat.pdx.edu EBURST
   [Sep 11 10:35:40.414190 1999] unknown message from server (:irc.cat.pdx.edu EBURST)

   [Sep 11 10:50:18.230329 1999] debug: Received: :irc.cat.pdx.edu EBURST

   [Sep 11 10:50:19.199174 1999] unknown message from server (nl MODE tysonl +owg)

And after the database is saved, the next string recieved is broken:

   [Sep 11 10:55:18.190564 1999] debug: Received: PING :irc.cat.pdx.edu
   [Sep 11 10:55:18.191015 1999] debug: Sent: :services.irc.cat.pdx.edu PONG services.irc.cat.pdx.edu irc.cat.pdx.edu

   [Sep 11 10:55:28.192537 1999] debug: Received: NG :irc.cat.pdx.edu
