I need to do a simple thing in general =)

But can't understand how can it be done with standard promotion system of vB.
Thinking that a need a mod for this, but maybe i'm wrong.
If anybody can help or give an adviŅe - i'll be very grateful.

So i need to do only this demotion:

If user joined the board already for X days or more, AND number of his posts less then Y - then he moved (not pruned) to another group.

Returning user back into normal group can be done with vB promotion system =)
But how about demotion... I'm stuck here... =)

You can move anyone to another group, theres no hierarchy. Promotion is a confusing word for it.

Just do it how you would normally.

Maybe i could not explain what i want exactly =)
I need to automaticly (by cron) move users to another group IF:
(Number of post LESS than X) AND (Time after registration has passed MORE than Y days).
That's all. =)

You can not mix LESS/MORE in a promotion with default vB.

Ok. So maybe somebody knows any Mod that can give me that, as i think, simple functionality? =) To solve this puzzle? =)

Never seen it, and i doubt it will be that simple. It will most likely need code-edits.

Sorry for jumping into the thread, but it isn't a bit awkward that promotions are not executed independently from each other and therefore you can not mix Greater Than with Less Than criteria for different groups ?

I have a 10 day promotion set up on my site where newly registered users can wander freely around the site but after that they will be required to purchase a membership. How can I have these users sent to a specific page when they visit if their 10 days are up?
