NickServ Command's.

NickServ is used on Beyondirc to keep track of all the Nicks (nicknames) in use at any time.

It does not let two people use the same Nick at anyone time, although, two people can use the same Nick, they must not be on any of the Beyondirc server's at the same time.
You Do not have to Register a Nick if you do not want to.

There is one draw back with Beyondirc Nickserv ? if you have a system crash you cannot get back on to Beyond with same nick you were using as Service's still think's you are online.
You have to either wait till your nick time's out or rejoin with another nick and then use the Ghost command.

Some handy NickServ commands :-

/NICK Nick-Name
ie. /nick Johndory
Change's your Nick to what ever you put.

/MSG NICKSERV INFO nick
ie. /msg nickserv info Johndory
This will either bring the return of "Nick not Registered" or it will give you infomation about the person who own's the Nick.
This command can be used when you are looking for a Nick to Register yourself as yours.
