How To Make Someone Admin On Discord Group Chat?
To make someone admin on Discord group chat, a user can give their role permission to do so. When you have made roles in your Discord server, then you can assign members those roles. The members within a server need admin-level permission to create content and post it on the channel.
Whenever you assign roles to members, get their consent, and make sure that they can fulfill their responsibilities.
For example, if you are assigning a role to a member, where they have to manage the Discord group chat, then they should know how to manage it.
They need to see if someone is using abusive language in the Discord chat, spreading unnecessary information, or simply harassing others.
If a trusted member is assigned this role, then the server will remain in a peaceful place for a long time.

Conclusion
Discord is a really good place, where you can make a server of what you want to share with other people. For example, if you are interested in a game that has difficult levels, then you can surely create a server to discuss that game.
Players, who face the same problems in that game, will also want to join that server. As the members of a server grow, the admin would need help managing things, because he can’t control such members on their own.
This is why Discord allows admins to create roles so that they can assign duties to whom they trust. Join Discord, and make sure that you stay civil, after joining a server. If you are abusive, then the admin can surely kick you off Discord.
