What features does a Group Organizer have?

The group organizer can do a few things no one else can do. For starters you can edit and delete posts made to your group.

As the group organizer, you can promote any group member to "moderator" status from your group's member list. Group moderators have additional privileges, such as the ability to edit and delete any post within the group.

As the group organizer, you will have an additional option to specify the discussion type. Your choices are "Normal" and "Sticky", where "Sticky" discussions always appear at the top of your discussion lists. Sticky discussions can be useful for announcements that you don't want buried under newer discussions.

If you need to limit group participation, you can do so by setting your group's privacy control to "Private". Private groups are automatically hidden from anyone that's not in your group and are perfect for local organizations.

If you want to keep your group public but only limit the membership, you can set the "Membership Control" to "Invite Only" or "Closed". This will prevent outsiders from posting to your group while still keeping the discussions available publicly for viewing.
