It actually is/was a riot bug , see
https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/9579 . I think I should
have shared more of the context of that bug or issue. What seems to
happen, at least in #debian-in and probably couple of other IRC
channels which have this need for registered nicknames, it seems it
keeps the identity and the password for upto 30 days. If for 30 days
or actually even less it drops the password or riot drops the
password.
So at the end you end up changing the password. But even that under
riot has a different syntax than what we are used to in a normal IRC
client. See -
https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/9579 and how I was able
to fix it thanks to t3chguy .
On a slightly different note, I saw this

Thank you for answering though.
