sysop ==>
system operator
<job, jargon> (Always abbreviated to "sysop") /sis'op/ A term used in the
BBS world for the operator of a bulletin-board system (who is usually also the
owner).
A common neophyte mistake on FidoNet is to address a message to "sysop" in an
international echo, thus sending it to hundreds of sysops around the world.
Contrast: system administrator.
