Something I don't expound on much is that for nearly a decade I ran a pretty known group. By virtue of maintaining that groups integrity and usefulness it meant being an admin with an iron fist. As a byproduct or that administration yours truly removed many well known CT accounts routinely.

Tried to delegate this once to someone and it went so badly. They told me they didn't sleep well, didn't know if the person would still be there friend, and they wondered how id done it for years prior.

The best admins are syndicates of 10+ people who work multiple chats in shifts and do it less than 6 hours a day It could be a company actually if someone managed it right

What I did was have a team of 10-12 managing 30-40 total and we democratized key decisions so that I wasn't fully at the helm. This worked out so well at first but as attention and drive waned it became 4-6, and ineffective. My goal was always to not shoulder it all, but you can't make fellow leaders. Only nudge.

When people are in any new environment they get an injection of ambition and drive that always wanes This is why I focused on development in business Once doors for the opportunity to advance are opened, the menial work becomes a necessary evil to prove consistency and reliability Milk old Bessie then set her free
