how do i make it for a user to view a forum they have to have 10 posts min?

also is there a way to make it so they have to average like 5 posts a day??

1. Just setup the default 'Registered Users' Usergroup to have no permissions, then create a new group that does have permissions. Now setup a Promotion after 10 posts.

2. Not possible with standard vB, it would require a hack.

Set up your registered user groups permissions to only be able to view the forums you want them to be able to view BEFORE they get 10 posts. Then create another usergroup that can view the forums you want them to be able to view AFTER 10 posts. Then set up a promotion that moves the registered users into the new usergroup after 10 posts.

the promotion thing didnt work when i did it, i tried making a test user to get it and it never worked
