ok,

Here's my  $0.02, in light of the affects that will occur, the network
functionality should always take priority to user functionality. That said
it would be, IMHO, to disable the guest feature and keep the stats. Without
the guest feature users will be /kill'd instead, they can always reconnect.
One of two things are happening if a nick is forced a change to guestxxxxx
to start with. One is that services is lagged to the point of not seeing a
users attempt of identify'ing or two the user isn't paying attention.

This creates an inconvenience for the user, but keeps the network stable(The
IRCop's prime duty, IAW RFC1459).
