Couple Questions...Please Help
 

this may have been posted before.
i did a search and cannot find what i'm looking for.
i migrated from phpbb and vbulletin 3.0.3 w/ vbportal.
can i do the following with vbull?

* setup where if users had under 25 threads made than they cannot enter a specific forum? the users can still see the forum name and description but unable to enter the forum which will result in a message saying, "you need 25 threads made in order to enter this forum".
* i had a "download add-on" for my old forum which gave me the ability to set download quotas for each registered user. meaning that whenever a new download was available for downloading, each registered user had a download quota of approx 100 megs for that particular download. mind you that for every download, each registered will have a seperate download quota for that particular download. this also gave me the ability to set permission so that only users with so many post/threads were able to download this particular file. this add-on also prevented the link to these downloads from being +++++d out to other websites/forums. so that unless you're logged in, you cannot download from the link provided.

please help
any help on how to achieve these results will be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance.

please help or have any ideas.
thanks

I don't know about post count affecting forum access, but you can do that with usergroups pretty easily. Just set up a secondary registered usergroup, and then a promotion when they reach a certain level of posts so that they slide from one group to the next automatically.

As for the second question, I have no idea. sorry. :ermm:
