Housing society group rules

Rules for an apartment or colony group. Societies fight more on WhatsApp than at meetings; these rules keep the group for information.

*Group rules* 1. This group is for society matters only: water, power, security, maintenance and events. 2. Report a problem with the flat number, the place and a photo. One message, not ten. 3. Complaints go to the committee or the office. The group is for information, not for hearings. 4. No personal remarks about any resident, staff member or committee member. 5. No politics, religion, forwards, jokes or good morning messages. Use the social group for those. 6. Advertisements only on the day fixed by the admin, one message per business. 7. Do not post any person's photo or video without consent, including staff and delivery workers. 8. Lost and found, blood needed and safety alerts are always welcome. 9. Committee decisions are announced here. Discuss them at the meeting. 10. Two warnings, then removal for a month. The rule is the same for everybody.

How to use these rules

  1. Copy the rules and change any line that does not fit your group.
  2. Post them in the group and pin the message, so that it stays at the top.
  3. Put the one-line version in the group description. Ready lines are on the descriptions page.
  4. When a rule is broken, remind the person privately first. See how to be a good admin.
