setting player to gm status or OP
 

found one outdated post about how to change status and both methods listed in that one dont work.

SO for updated fix mysql 5.0 and such.
Where does one find the file(s) to alter and what to alter with to make the account and or /player(s) gm or guide status?

UPDATE account SET status = 250 WHERE name = 'joligario';

and then in game on Charradan, I would use the #gm command

That will allow all my characters on that LS account to use that command.

Thanks so much for this update.
just mirrored the line you provided in mysql command prompt (inserting my own account name) and it worked!
