Stepping down as group admin

If you feel like your time as group admin has run its course and wish to step down, you have to nominate another member to step up. This is to ensure the best person will lead the group and keep its original focus and interests of members. Consulting and discussing with the group and moderators beforehand on who’s willing to take up the role will make the transfer to the new admin much quicker and easier.

To step down as admin by nominating someone:

1. Go to your group homepage, and select Members from the left menu
2. Find the member you wish to nominate
3. Click on the options gear next to their name and select Nominate as Admin
4. We’ll notify the member you nominate, but you will remain the group admin and your subscription won’t stop until they accept the nomination
5. If the member declines, you can use the same process to nominate another member

Note: You can only nominate one member at a time.
