 Group admins can issue group announcements that are posted poublicly by the group user, such as when there is a planned maintenance. The group will attempt to catch up with posts missed during the outage.
 
+*Note: In this document, "reblog" and "boost" are used interchangeably.*
+
 ### Advantages of emulated groups
 
 Unlike some other attempts at group implementation (namely gup.pe or the mythical WIP Pleroma Groups), this works with current Pleroma and Mastodon. There's no need for interoperability in different server implementations, since it uses existing follow/mention/reblog features that are already cross-compatible. Mastodon users can join a group running on Pleroma and vice-versa.

 ## Group usage
 
+### Sharing into the group
+
+The group will boost any status meeting these criteria:
+- The visiblity is public or unlisted
+- It's not a command request (i.e. mentions the group user and contains valid command(s))
+- Either:
+  - it mentions the group user and is not a reply
+  - or, it contains one of the group hashtags
+
+Examples of posts that will be shared:
+- `@group Look at this duck` (public or unlisted)
+- `Look at this duck @group` (public or unlisted)
+- `I love #ducks` (public or unlisted, if #ducks is a group hashtag)
+- `@otheruser tell me about #ducks` (in a thread, public or unlisted, if #ducks is a group hashtag)
+- `Ducks are cool @otheruser @group` (original post)
+
+These won't be shared:
+- `ducks suck`
+- `@group #ducks /i` (anything with the "ignore" command is ignored)
+- `@group /remove #ducks` (admin command, even if it includes a group hashtag)
+- `@otheruser tell me about ducks` (in a thread)
+- `@otheruser @group tell me about ducks` (in a thread)
+
 ### Commands
 
 Commands are simple text lines you use when mentioning the group user. DMs work well for this.
@@ -122,6 +148,12 @@ When a *group member* posts one of the group hashtags, the group will reblog it.
 
 For group hashtags to work, the group user must follow all its members; otherwise the posts might not federate to the group's server.
 
+### Opting-out and #nobot
+
+The group service respects the `#nobot` tag in users' profiles. When it's detected, the user's posts can't be shared to the group using the `/boost` command, unless they explicitly join.
+
+To prevent individual groups from boosting your posts, use the `/optout` command.

 **Basic commands**
 - `/help` - show help
-- `/ignore`, `/i` - make the group completely ignore the post
+- `/ignore` (alias `/i`) - make the group completely ignore the post
-- `/members`, `/who` - show group members / admins
+- `/members` (alias `/who`) - show group members / admins
 - `/tags` - show group hashtags
-- `/boost`, `/b` - boost the replied-to post into the group
+- `/boost` (alias `/b`) - boost the replied-to post into the group
 - `/ping` - ping the group service to check it's running, it will reply
 - `/join` - join the group
 - `/leave` - leave the group
+- `/optout` - forbid sharing of your posts to the group (no effect for admins and members)
+- `/optin` - reverse an opt-out
+- `/undo` - undo a boost of your post into the group, e.g. when you triggered it unintentionally. Use in a reply to the boosted post, tagging the group user. You can also un-boost your status when someone else shared it into the group using `/boost`, this works even if you're not a member.
 
 **For admins**
 - `/announce x` - make a public announcement from the rest of the status. Note: this does not preserve any formatting!
-- `/ban x` - ban a user or a server from the group
+- `/ban user@domain` - ban a user from interacting with the group or having their statuses shared
-- `/unban x` - lift a ban
+- `/unban user@domain` - lift a user ban
-- `/op user`, `/admin user` - grant admin rights to the group
+- `/ban domain.tld` - ban a server (works similar to instance mute)
-- `/deop user`, `/deadmin user` - revoke admin rights
+- `/unban domain.tld` - lift a server ban
-- `/opengroup` - make member-only
+- `/op user@domain` (alias `/admin`) - grant admin rights to a user
-- `/closegroup` - make public-access
+- `/deop user@domain` (alias `/deadmin`) - revoke admin rights
-- `/add user` - add a member (use e-mail style address)
+- `/closegroup` - make the group member-only
-- `/kick user, /remove user` - kick a member
+- `/opengroup` - make the group public-access
-- `/add #hashtag` - add a hasgtag to the group
+- `/add user@domain` (alias `/follow`) - add a member
-- `/remove #hashtag` - remove a hasgtag from the group
+- `/remove user@domain` (alias `/remove`) - remove a member
+- `/add #hashtag` (alias `/follow`) - add a hashtag to the group
+- `/remove #hashtag` (alias `/unfollow`) - remove a hashtag from the group
+- `/undo` (alias `/delete`) - when used by an admin, this command can un-boost any status. It can also delete an announcement made in error.
