That mod is incredibly obtrusive and you will lose some normal first-time users. They click a link to the forum, see the gateway page and leave.

I have ONE sub-forum that has issues with automated post-bots, they cause MySQL to over-load several times a day. Having this script working in only that forum and not the entire site would be useful for me. So yes it would do me good to run it in only one forum.

Since I couldn't get this to work, with the help of kh99 (this guy is awesome), I have instead installed CAPTCHA in the particular forum that was causing issues. It doesn't work as well in reducing the server load since the bots still hit the forum but it's better than nothing.
