Maybe I'm not understanding the term, but that isn't you?

Pilchard123:
I though it was est.

Method of Madness:
Well yeah, but I meant isn't it both of them?

pwhodges:
I am an admin of the forum as a function of the forum software itself; I have no access to the server the forum runs on.  The forum and the comic are on the same dedicated server in a small hosting operation in CA.  The owner (I guess) and server administrator is a forum admin here for the purpose of doing things to the forum when no one else can (basically, I guess he installed it initially).  I contact him by email (because he doesn't watch his forum account) if there are server issues or forum things even I can't do (e.g. when I installed Tapatalk, he had to do a chmod on the new directory it created before it could work; and recently he added https access to the forum at my request).

Est was (is, if he ever feels the need to return) in the same position as me; and like me he runs other computer systems, but not this one.  He hosted the PocketJury forum that some people from here set up, and still hosts its replacement (I don't know if that's on his own machine, or rented server space).

Loki:
Basically you can imagine it like this: if the forum is a private club, Paul is head of security and can execute rights of the householder, while Jeph holds the deed and the other guy holds the building permit.
