Tips and Tricks: 🔥
The Art of Conversation Moderation 🎨
As a House founder, admin, or moderator on Clubhouse, you have the power to control the conversation and keep things on track. Here are some tips on how to do it:
- Manage Speakers: As a House founder, admin, or moderator, you can invite speakers up on stage and remove them if necessary. You can also control who can raise their hand to speak or turn this feature off altogether.
- Mute Speakers: If someone is being disruptive or going off-topic, you can mute them to keep the conversation flowing smoothly.
- Turn Chat On or Off: In-room chats can be turned on or off, depending on your preference. You can also remove messages from the chat or report them if necessary.
