[IRCServices Coding] session limit bug

It was 06:14 PM 3/24/2003 +0000 when Craig Edwards came up 
with:

Not if the ircd doesn't support it, and as far
as I know none does (certainly not Bahamut,
any version), unless you squit and reconnect.

And besides, use of the RAW command is not
recommended for the very reason it can lead
to desynchs, and IMHO any services should not
waste time/cpu/memory/whatever to try and
fix input errors, it should be left to whoever
inputs the wrong commands to refrain from
doing so.

As for buggy server software (are you running
Unreal? =P), bugs should be fixed on the server's
side, not on the services' if they do their job.
