You dont need to change any permissions, create a new usergroup and base their permissions off the registered usergroup ;)

I am still pretty new with the system, so yeah I guess what I said makes no sense at all.. is there anyway I can request this hack to be deleted?

Don't delete it......no hack is a bad hack. I certainly have a use for this, as I have over 35 usergroups.....it's a pain in the arse to set up permissions for each group, then add promotions for each group. Yes, I can do it that way......but your hack has saved me about an hour and a half! Thank you! :)

Buc thats what "Base usergroup off of" and "Base usergroup permissions off of" are for ;)

Zach, what would you do if they are already created? Also.. did no one seem to notice I'm going update this soon (Says in the text file) that you can't send PM's to a user who can't use PM system yet?

Eh, why are you people so nasty to him...Personally I find this useful, when my board gets bigger i'll probaly use it to lower bandwidth, in a small way ^^

Because of the following.

IMO the promotions route is a lot more comprehensive and at the end of the day the little time taken to do it means greater benefits for all. I know, I've done both methods on my board.

Still a good idea.. :) I'll try to use/fix the code to block users with a certain post count from viewing a particular forum and it's threads.. :D

How you ask?

Usergroup Promotions:
Default usergroup gets NO pm permissions
add a secondary usergroup that has PM's enabled
Add a promotion to add user to new group when XXX posts number is reached

Also turning off the pm system for users who are not in a group that can send pms works much better ;)
