Those are extreme examples
I think I've been several of those types at different times in my career, but never to that extreme.

If I had to choose one, it would be Mr. Safety. I do think of the network as mine to oversee and have become paranoid about security, but I think that is probably a good thing.

I have also met the out-of-my-depth administrator before, several times. The gamesmasters I've met were usually programmers and not net admins.

I think I'd like to see more types of net admins. I know I have met admins that have stupidadminitis and disappearingadminitis. Also, maybe there could be questions that the reader would answer that could help them ascertain what type they are most like.

I like the article because it pokes fun at how being a net admin can eventually make you crazy even if you aren't already.
