As others have said, it sounds like one SQL user. Think of MySQL users as "roles," rather than "users." Segregate these roles according to how much trust you have in the user behind the role, and how much damage that role could perform. You may want a separate MySQL user that can only INSERT, for example, but without DELETE permission. :::: Be a light, not a judge. Be a model, not a critic.
