Stjohn: pay no attention to the couple under the covers?
Lorna: There is no couple, no covers, and, on a different note, no spoon.
Stjohn: I don't believe you. I'm holding a spoon right now.

I dont think the problem is with chat as much as the number its showing of users. There's no one in there now, and it says 3. When I went in there earlier, it said 12 and there were 5.
"If you live your life to please everyone else, you will continue to feel frustrated and powerless. This is because what others want may not be good for you. You are not being mean when you say NO to unreasonable demands or when you express your ideas, feelings, and opinions, even if they differ from those of others.â€

That means that another user is using the nickname Stjohn; either you have another active connection, or services is holding the nickname (it holds a nickname for one minute after a user attempts to use it without identifying).

In the first case, you can type /ns ghost nickname password and the other connection will be disconnected.

In the second case, you can type /ns release nickname password, and services will stop holding the nickname.

Thanks!
