maybes check all databases and remove GM from name if he had GM<name> failing that and if reloadadmin dont work could try making new admin.txt and restore that

its quite easy done tbh i know first hand that rich aka lyncus yes a main admin on lomcn had @addnamelist set on a npc to add and remove gm powers. and its so easy to hide could be on any npc in game ass it could be hidden sp that he/she only has to click pot npc to do it

heres what u do geo wipe that charr from DB, IP ban the retard, then run a scan on all npc files for that char's name as well as @addnamelist.

just a little hint check mobs drop files for any hidden items that should not be there

iv scanned the full envir etc and there was no trace, as you said though it could be done with variables which would nearly be untraceable,
I had a feeling a while back that he may be able to access my server though even though iv changed pass etc, so i blocked the RDCP port but now i have another GM so iv had to unblock it, does anyone know if theres a way to hack rdcp or something?

addnamelist sounds like a plausible way of doing it. just search inside the npcs for all addnamelist commands, you can't have too many.
