Group Booster: Keep Your Group in Order

A group grows, and spam, flood and endless "where are the rules?" grow with it. Group Booster takes over the admin routine: it greets newcomers, keeps order and removes clutter. The bot says it runs on the official Bot API and can do plenty of cool things. 🛠️

Below is what exactly it does, how to connect it and how not to give it extra rights.

What the bot does to a group

The basic set from its description looks like this.

• Kick and ban: removes violators from the group.
• Rules: lets you set rules that can be shown to members.
• Welcome: greets newcomers with a message you customize.
• Locks: closes stickers, GIFs, images, video and other message types.

Besides the basics, the project's channel describes more features. For example, hiding join and leave messages. 🔕

Admin rights: no way around them

For the bot to ban and delete, it must be made an admin. Without that it only replies to commands and does not punish.

1. Add the bot to the group.
2. Open the admin list and appoint it.
3. Enable only the needed rights: deleting messages, blocking users.
4. Send /start and check the reply.

Do not give the right to appoint other admins unless needed. The fewer the rights, the lower the risk.

Password entry and other settings

The project's channel describes protected entry: a command creates a special link that you give only to those you expect. This helps closed communities. 🔑

The bot works in several languages, switched with a special command. Translations are made by the community, so rare spots may be inexact.

Rules every group needs

The bot is only an executor. To make it useful, write the rules in advance.

• What the group is about: one topic, to avoid arguments.
• What is forbidden: ads, spam, insults.
• What follows: warning, ban, duration.

Keep it short and free of threats: members read three lines but do not read three screens. 📏

Pin the rules in the group and repeat them in the welcome message. A newcomer who sees the limits at once breaks them noticeably less often.

Treat blocks humanely: a warning first, a ban after. Harsh decisions without explanation scatter real members faster than any spam.

Limits worth knowing

One review notes that the bot has fewer features than the big players. If you need complex anti-spam chains, captcha or analytics, check those capabilities separately.

The project's channel has also mentioned a sale of the bot itself. That means the owner may have changed, and so the terms and behavior of the bot may change. Follow updates on the official channel. 🔄

Security

Add the bot only through its official page. Do not forward it passwords or codes, and if it suddenly asks for payment, verify that in the project's channel.

Once a month look through the group's admin list and remove extras. That protects the group from nasty surprises. ✅
