- Upper sysops: can delete pages or protect them
from the lower classes; can see everyone IP's, block IP's of anyone.

- Lowers sysops: can delete pages or protect them
from the lower classes; can block IP's of anonymous only. Don't see users IP.
A Lower-class:
- Signed-in users - cannot be blocked, except by a
developer
- Anonymous (IP) users - can be blocked by any sysop
Eh? I don't remember calling for two types of sysops. I've only advocated for sysops to have the ability to block vandals who have happened to log-in. The particular method by which I proposed this was simple; allow sysops the ability to see the IPs of logged-in users.
I still think this is the best solution. Perhaps our previous disagreement was based on the above misunderstanding? I would have opposed a two-level sysop scheme too.
