ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Sysop

A sysop is like a grown-up helper who takes care of a big computer system. Just like how mommy and daddy take care of the house, a sysop takes care of the computer.

The sysop's job is to make sure that everything in the computer system is working properly. They make sure that everyone that uses the system has the right permissions and can only access what they're supposed to. They also make sure that any problems that happen are fixed quickly so that the computer system can keep doing its job.

Think of it like a big playground where a teacher is always watching to make sure that everyone is safe and following the rules. That's what the sysop does for the computer system!
