Every once and a while a person by the name of PSU staff posts here on PSU. We have all wondered who this is and why that account exists. I have figured out the answers to both of those questions. As you know, most of the forums are moderated by PSU staff. If you click on PSU staff, you get a profile, just like you would clicking on any account name. This means that the PSU staff account was created for the propose of putting PSU staff in the moderated by boxes. Hamma probably made this account, because he was the first one here and this account probably have been made when PSU started. I am assuming that hamma is the only one that knows the password to this account, thus he is the mysterious PSU staff.

I'm sure PSU Staff was created to put the name into the moderators box on the forums. Because even without moderator power, we still moderate the forums. Hamma is most likely the one who created this account, and i'm guessing he's the only one who has access.

It's you and you know it, Hamma. And just to prove it, could an admin check the IP address on PSU staff and the IP on Hamma. I bet they will be the same.

It's Hamma. You know when you see the list of forums? Well to the right of each one it says who the moderator is. NONE of them are Hamma, do you really think he would let this happen? Somebody he claims to not know, moderating the forums. I don't think so.

PSU Staff is probably a phrophet and is calling to hamma to start a new PS religion.

Hamma

I dont need to be listed to be a moderator, I am an administrator - which means i mod and see everything

Ok Just a little experiment.

PSU Staff was Created on 09-14-2002

Squeeky : 01-07-2003

Hamma : 09-12-2002 2 days before PSU Staff

Strygun : 12-13-2002

Powdahound : 09-12-2002 Same as hamma

Hmmmm it appears that PSU Staff may be accessible by only Hamma and Powdahound. He or it as it were is probly used to do the bans and lock the threads and stuff so that no one knows which admin did it. But my opinion is that its a vauge description of who can do what in each forum. AkA anyone with PSU Staff in their profile (with some sort of code) is accepted by PSU Staff (the account) and allowed to be the admin.

i think its just used by any admin. why? because the forum moderator is psu staff for this forum and the other1.



if i'm right, then we have to find out who uses that account the most.
