        connection.privmsg("NickServ", "recover " + connection.nickname + " " + password)  # Recover control of nickname via NickServ.
        connection.nick(connection.nickname)    # Set original nickname. Should have happened during the nickServ recover, this fails when still connecting. So this creates a loop to successfully recover via NickServ.
