[resolved] IRC renames people when you receive a private message

Problem Details:
If you have a query open with someone in IRC, then someone else ingame messages you, the IRC server will rename the person who you were in a query with to the person who just sent the message, then it will display that message through that same query window. This can get annoying when trying to message more than one person over IRC, as people can interrupt you and take over the chat window.

This never happened to me on HexChat or mIRC, so, I guess it's a problem with that client.

It's IRSSI, which I thought would be one of the more 'standard' clients...

I've done some wiresharking and my best guess as to the cause is that all users have their realname set to "cho" and their hostmask set to "ppy.sh", which may be tricking irssi into thinking they're all the same person. If the user ID was added to the realname (or if it was made unique some other way) maybe it would play nicely with irssi, but that's just a guess.

This no longer seems to happen.

All of those except one were initiated from in game, so it seems this is fixed.
