You can modify this file to do different things (by default, enter it is set to <code>say /msg nickserv GHOST name passwordtime</code>, which tells the date, time, and server info) - anything in the autorun file is executed through the Console.

===How to reclaim By default, you can find your '''autorun.txt''' file under <code>C:/Users/<''your username''>/wurm/configs/<config name===(default is ''default'')>/autorun.txt</code>

Nickserv doesn't reserve namesYou can set up your autorun file to open IRC, so someone might be using you registered name log in with your username and you may want password, and connect to reclaim ita number of channels.Here is an example of what this may look like in the autorun file:

In IRC, not in an actual channel, enter <code>/msg nickserv RECOVER name password</code>followed by <code>/msg nickserv RELEASE name password</codepre>irc

Adding a ''TIMEOUT'' command is to tell the command to wait for a number of seconds. This may be necessary to add because otherwise it may try to join channels before you have successfully logged in. This is particularly important for channels with restrictions on users who may join. [[File:Join_wurmpedia.jpg|500px|thumb|right|A new channel tab is opened after using the "/join" command]] == Joining or leaving a channel == Join a channel with <code>/join #channel</code>* If the channel requires a password, add the password after the channel name. <code>/join #channel <''password''></code> Leave a channel with <code>/raw part #channel</code>* Note: You won't see any confirmation of leaving the channel.
