Private Forums

[agoratim]

Hey folks,
I'm wondering if anyone knows of any mods that would allow me create a forum in which all usergroups are denied access by default. VBulletin's current behaviour is to allow access to all usergroups when the forum is created. I'd like to flip a switch in the forum manager that says that a specific forum is private to all usergroups by default. I could then selectively allow usergroups to access the forum.

Consider the situation where you have a thousand usergroups each with their own private forum. It wouldn't be so great to have to actively deny access to a new forum for each of these usergroups. It would be far easier to deny access to everyone once at the forum level and the override that denial at the usergroup level for the one group that needs it.

Thanks!
