/notice $me Tip #1: If someone nick collides you, there is a way to find out who.  Look for another nick the in the "quit (killed..)" message, then type /whowas <nick>.  This gives you info, if fast enough.
/notice $me Tip #2: If you get stuck with a problem relating to mIRC or Killer, join #Killer.
/notice $me Tip #3: You can check for clones or nick changes using a persons hostmask.  If it was many@202.36.36.124 typw /who *202.36.36.124* and if it me@x2-v51.direct.ca try /who *x2-v51.direct.ca
/notice $me Tip #4: If your channel is taken over- don't ask for help on #twilight_zone.  Most ircOPS on #twilight_zone won't help unless they get something out of it.
/notice $me Tip #5: By typing /motd <server> you can see the motd for that server.
/notice $me Tip #6: Looking for a lagged server?  Irc.univ-lyon1.fr is almost always lagged more than one minute from US servers.  Some restrictions on hostmasks ending in .edu apply.
/notice $me Tip #7: Is your channel desynched?  You can stop the desynch by emptying the channel on one side of the desynch.
/notice $me Tip #8: To listen to ircOP wide messages on your server, type /mode +w <yournick>.  The same applies for server messages, but it is /mode <yournick> +s.  Remove these using -w and -s.
