Alright so I am relatively new to linux and I am trying to create a another user for my FTP server because the default root would not work, also it isnt smart to use root kek. But I wanted to be able to do root commands so I tried to su sudo my user "Snowden." Although now that i logged off and came back on the user is not on the sudoer list and I can not get into the root account what did i do? any help?

Look at this page and read item 2 - c:
http://www.codero.com/knowledge-base/content/18/45/en/i-have-a-dedicated-server-how-can-i-upload-my-files-over-a-secure-ftp-connection.html

That is what I ma talking about needing another account other than root to get into my ftp server, also for the record I am using FileZilla and not that client.

Here are the commands that I did to sudo my user 'Snowden,' when I logged back he was no longer Sudo and I could not longer get into root:

Please any help or maybe a better place for this post, perhaps a linux forum would be nice since I know of none. Anything helps </3

Also my host for my dedicated server is codero and it runs CentOs for the record
