Description

Situation: I'm in a room with another person
1. I have the nick "peter"
2. The other person changes her nick to "peter"
3. RiotX displays `(@myusername:server)` and `(@herusername:server)` behind our nicks
4. The other person changes her nick back (so there is only one "peter"; me)
5. RiotX still displays `(@myusername:server)` behind my nick

What I would instead expect: RiotX just displays my nick. I think it wouldn't be too weird in the first place if there would never appear a username after my own messages. I probably know who I am (philosophical issues aside..).

I hope I'm using the correct terminology here. I really like how smooth this new app feels by the way! Eagerly looking forward to phase 2 :)
