Allows you to recover your nickname if someone else has taken it; this does the same thing that NickServ does automatically if someone tries to use a kill-protected nick. When you give this command, Nickserv will bring a fake user online with the same nickname as the user you're trying to recover your nick from. This causes the IRC servers to disconnect the other user. This fake user will remain online for one minute to ensure that the other user does not immediately reconnect; after that minute, you can reclaim your nick. Alternatively, use the RELEASE command to get the nick back sooner. [back to top] /msg nickserv recover nickname password RELEASE - Regain custody of your nick.

A "ghost" session is one which is not actually connected, but which the IRC server believes is still online for one reason or another.
