Be consistent and punish unwanted behavior

You have many options to reward your group members for desired behavior. Has someone posted and commented particularly diligently in your group? Make them member of the week or month and offer them a platform to present themselves exclusively!
Is someone particularly helpful and selflessly supporting your work? Make them a co-admin and use the opportunity to introduce them to the other macedonia telegram screening members! Depending on the group topic, you will definitely come up with even more possibilities for your group.
Groups, no matter what kind, always attract trolls. People who don't want to follow the rules. People who provoke, are rude or want to show off. You can use the group rules to make it clear that you don't want that. But you also have to be consistent, reprimand such behavior and kick out the members who (repeatedly) misbehave.
That feels strange sometimes. I'm not the type of supervisor who constantly looks at what mistakes other people make. I simply expect the members of my group to follow the rules voluntarily and out of conviction. Simply because that's how I act myself.
That's why I always look closely to see whether someone was just careless, whether they didn't care about the rules or whether they deliberately broke them. Then I can get uncomfortable. I don't enjoy it. But I always get a lot of support from the active members.
