Some things off the top of my head

>control the mods
mods always seem to powertrip and become the leaders of the group, they need to be kept in check, have a voting system to kick/ban instead of mods, or maybe have the mods be required to only be able to ban if the offending content meets very specific rules, allow no room for power tripping

>have a focus
different atmospheres and focuses clash, there needs to be a singular and clear focus, incentivize what you want the group to be and make what you don't want to see unpreferable.

>activity levels
don't make too many channels, it disperses the conversation and makes the group appear dead, don't have too few otherwise you end up with 300+ messages every hour.
Also don't make the group too big or too small, a medium sized group is best for conversation. making a "#general 2.0" doesn't work, the first general will always be the only one that is ever used.
