Feature. It is how /whowas works (almost) everywhere.

The proper syntax is:

Code: Select all

/whowas <nick> [number]
where [number] is the number of maximum results you want back.

The multiple results is because they've been connected before. For example:

w00t was [email protected] * w00t
w00t using boo.netronet.com Sat May 21 07:16:56 2005
w00t was [email protected] * w00t
w00t using boo.netronet.com Sat May 21 04:37:44 2005

means in the whowas history, I've been connected twice that it can remember - blah blah blah.
