Is it possible to create a hack where it restricts the amount of attachments a user can view in a certian time period? This would be
REALLY good for big boards that want to cut down on server / bandwidth usage
Ideally it would be linked to the users reputation amount, so more rep = more downloads. It should also have the option to have an "admin set" option, so the admin can set a custom amount.
I think it should also have its own "control panel", so that admins can set all the parameters for it.
I think it should have some (if not all) of the following features:
- Ability to set time for download "reset" - meaning the time at which people can download again
- Usergroups that cannot download at all
- Usergroups that are exempt from download limits (eg admins, super mods)
- Forums that are exempt from download limits
- Custom message when download limit reached
- Option to limit downloads based on user reputation (more rep = more downloads)
- Limit per reputation level (see above point)
i cant think of anymore, but feel free to suggest - i am willing to add a donation to the creator, not much but i will do my best
