Wondering




Posted by GameMiestro

Ive noticed this for a while, and I find it odd. When you look at the moderators, theres a "Super Administrator" listed that always has your own name. Why is that?

Jesse added it to mess with "n00bs". It's just the username hack.

Thing is though, that account actually HAS Super Admin powers. So whoever could crack the password to it, could do great damage. This is what I think happened with the recent "hacking". Theoretically speaking though whoever takes control of that account COULD de-admin Jesse.

Except it was through Big Boss' account.

This may be true... but I think the hacker had a hold of the wacko account as well because durring the whole ordeal, I saw that account lurking around, and it even left negative rep to different people.

Which probably was Jesse, as I've seen it done before.

Yes, but if that were true, why didn't he stop the trouble before it went full blown? Jesse didn't sign on till hours later.

That can't happen, Jesse is the "Root Admin" that means there is no one that can de-admin him, he can only do it himself. The super-admin is just a user title, it may be in the admin class type user title, but it

I thought that Super Admin thing was just a link to our profile and a thing to fool newbies. It's like when our names appear at the bottom when we're online. It could be just a link and nothing more.

Well, I'm guessing it is. I was just replying to the whole de-admining jesse thing.

You know what... your right. If you look at forum leaders there is no Super Administrator. Infact, correct me if I am wrong, but I don't even think Super Administrator is an option in VBulliten.

Someone asked that before, and I believe Hyper said there was...

Yes he can, by a co-admin or someone with higher privlages than him, i.e, Super Admin.

But whatever.

Whatever happened to VGC anyway? I was gone at the time. And what's with Big Boss's account?

I guess someone used BB's account to delete most of the boards, so only a few threads were left. Jesse used saturday's back-up to bring the place back.

And I'm assuming that was Raptor? That's pretty extreme anyway.

Yes I now realize this. I thought you did give that account powers, but I realized you didn't when I looked in Forum Leaders.

And no, I don't want power.

Umm, it was the hack, I just chnaged it back to the hack when I quoted him...sorry Fate?

I still find it mildly amusing. The super admin is suppose to have more poweres than regular ones, but this thread seems to say that they do, or they don't.
