Transmission as admin instead of guest

I noticed today that transmission is running is guest user. I was wondering if this isn't a security risk since I have to allow the guest-user to write to my MediaServer folder where I keep al the downloads?

Would it be possible to change this to admin? Ie Plex and SickBeard run as admin user.

I tried changing the user in the /etc/init.d/transmission file but when I do that it won't launch the service.
