SOps are a "higher" level than AOps and have all the AOp privileges in addition to some extra powers. As the founder, you are at a higher level still and you have all the SOp and AOp privileges, plus some founder-only powers. There is no need to add yourself to the SOp or AOp lists.

Find:It's beyond the scope of this guide to give help on how to use all the ChanServ powers that are granted to AOps and SOps. However, by each ability the appropriate help command is given; typing this while on IRC will provide more information.
Under this add:HOPs have the following powers:
They are given ops (%) when they enter the channel; if for some reason
they are in the channel without ops, they can get ChanServ to give
them ops at any time.

They can kick other users from the channel.
They can change the topic of the channel.
It's generally best to use nicknames, rather than address masks, in op(@) access lists. There are several reasons for this:

Even when ChanServ manages a channel, it is possible that some people who are not AOps or SOps might get ops (@) in that channel. The main way this can happen is if an AOp gives them ops.

Find:If you as channel founder or Manager and you do not want this to happen, you can enable the OPGUARD feature. When this feature is turned on, ChanServ will not allow people to have ops (@) on a channel (even temporarily) unless they are on the AOp/SOp/Manager list or are the founder. If somebody else is given ops, ChanServ will remove their ops immediately.

find:Managers/SOps and AOps are people you trust enough to give them some power on your channel. Among other things, this means that they will automatically be given ops (@) when they enter. Managers can change some of the channel's settings, can add or remove SOps/AOps and AKICKs (only trusted users can gain this access). SOps also have the ability to add and remove AOps and AKICKs (permanent bans from the channel), so you should be especially careful when making people SOps.
