Is Sysops the same as siteadmin? Because I am a member of the Sysops

No, as I said, "siteadmin" is a *right*, which is not at all the same as a group, and as I also said, it's not a right which is granted to any group by default in all modern release branches.

You'd set it with something like this in LocalSettings.php: $wgGroupPermissions['siteadmin]['siteadmin'] = true; Then you would assign it as with any other right at Special:Userrights.
There probably isn't any good reason to use that instead of setting $wgReadOnly, but I find it more convenient (and vaguely satisfying).
