Renegade had an error and had to shut down, but it seems like i'm stuck logged in. When i try to login again it says my username is already in use. Any idea how to fix this?

Wait it out for a few minutes without trying to log in. If it continues to do so, then yes, it is very likely someone is logged into that nick already.

It takes literally ages from XWIS to drop the nick if you crash or lose connection, from what I've experienced. I'm quessing it's about 10-15 minutes. Just wait for a while, or connect via other means.
