A1 had one purpose and one purpose alone. Protect/escort Site admin there wasnt ONE member of site admin that liked having a full A1 branch around where they didnt get any say about who protected them or what they do, the current RRH is a much better replacement (that and A1 ACTUALLY HAD ANOTHER JOB JUST REFUSED TO DO IT. They were MEANT to also contain SCPs but if no SA on then "fuck that lol")
secondly PKs,
soft PK:

Normaly PK:

What was needed for it? Super Admin+ perms and to be Site Admin

Correction, the main reason they were removed is because noone who they got on for liked having them around and 2 depite being "SF" I would take 5 security SGTs over them, they were really bad
