There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity. |
Fighting pseudoscience isn't free. We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can today with ![]() ![]() |
RationalWiki:Sysoprevoke
Sysoprevoke is a user "right" which can only be added or removed by mods. It prevents a user from using any of the tools of sysop, even if they are marked as being a sysop in user rights. In other words, it prevents anyone but a mod from re-sysopping someone. Techs have the technical abilty to sysoprevoke themselves or a user who has self-requested it, but are not permitted to put users in sysoprevoke unilaterally. Techs are not permitted to remove sysoprevoke placed by a moderator without approval from a moderator or the mob.
