This has been solved by Marttt. They made a plugin that automatically makes you an admin on listen servers.
Still don't know why I can't be an admin without it, though.

Hi.
First of all, sorry if this is the wrong place. I didn't know where else to put this.

Anyway,
I've been trying for well over a year by this point to set myself as a SourceMod admin in Left 4 Dead 2. Nothing has worked.
I've tried doing many different searches, and I could never figure it out.
And the strange thing is, I figured out how to set myself as an admin in Team Fortress 2. Even if I copy my working admins.cfg and admins_simple.ini from Team Fortress 2 over to Left 4 Dead 2, it still doesn't work.
Every time I type in sm_who it says "none", and not "root".
And yes, I did try sm_reloadadmins. Many different times.
Absolutely nothing has worked for me. And it doesn't help that I could barely find anything online about setting yourself up as an admin for SourceMod. I literally had to figure it out myself.
Seriously, what's with the lack of documentation?

Also, since we're on the topic of setting myself as an admin, would it be possible to do this for bots too? Their IDs are just "BOT", but every time I tried to put that in (in both TF2 and L4D2), it never worked.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
