Bug Description

Currently I cannot use my forum name in game, since I use the same name on IRC as well. I'll always get renamed to stonerl1, but that should only happen if my name is already taken on the metaserver and not when taken on IRC. This also means that I cannot login to the metaserver with my registered account.

Since IRC users get marked as such, it should be possible to have the same name on the metaserver.

I first thought this might be a metaserver issue, but it seems that the renaming is handle on the client side.

Here is the link to the bug for the metaserver (basically the same description):
