Limiting user power until X days and X posts? Limiting to X posts per X days.

[MikeDVB]

Hello,

I am an administrator over at http://www.webhostingboard.net/ and we are looking for a way to place some limitations but I have not been able to find any mods that will do this. Maybe I am not searching for the right things so hopefully you all can help us out.

We need a mod that will prevent users from doing certain things until certain conditions are met such as No Signature until you have been a member for 7 days and have at least 10 posts and you cannot post in certain sections as well until this is met.

I think just making regular registered users should be limited and then have a secondary "registered users" group that can do these things and setting up some automated way to run the checks (on a cron) and then changing the user group when the requirements have been met.

Also we would like to set some forum sections (the marketplace) to where you can only make one post every 7 days, I have seen it on other forums but I'm not entirely sure what mod/setting it would be for this.

Thank you!
