     This should never happen with Dreamforge, Bahamut, and Unreal.
With other servers, it can happen if the user disconnects from one
server and connects to another one whose clock is slower, thus giving
the user the same timestamp (if this is the case then either fix your
servers' clocks [preferred] or enable NoSplitRecovery in services.conf).

     If you can confirm this happening in any other circumstances I
would appreciate more detailed information.  In particular, you should
check whether the user actually has access to the nick in question or
whether it's just a case of a message not being sent.

     According to comments in the code, Bahamut servers should
automatically remove -r on nick change.  If this is not the case let
me know and I'll fix the code.

     For other servers, Services does send a -r when changing from a
registered nick to an unregistered one.

     No, and there will not be.  See the FAQ.
