     This looks like an ircd problem, perhaps a bug or a server

>Hi,

>below is part of my log related to issue. Now what is strange is that we
>set to forcefully change nick of a user to guest etc.. In this
>particular case the user keeps on getting nick collisions. Is there any
>reason for this because I cant think that there is a duplicate of the
>guest username and there are a couple of these kills. I made sure the
>Guest nick is not same everytime.
