Hello,

I have just opened a new section to my forum, trying to attract more members and users and traffic etc.

I don't want people just comming, getting what they want and leaving, there for i want to make the forum available for all registered users only (or mods/admins etc) BUT the registered users must have over 20 posts or something like that.

Is there a way where i can stop registered users under X posts getting onto certain forums of the site?

If anyone knows how to do this through vbulletin 3.7.0 or knows a custom mod that i can install posting it would be really helpful!

Cheers,
Vijay Pather

Set permissions to No for Registered Users, create a new usergroupo with ful permissions, promote users from Registered to the new usergroup when the've reached 20 posts - done.

Also I wouldn't do smth. like that - you would end up with a ton of useless posts.

It's more to hide the rest of the forum from everyone else. how do i set it up so that when someone hits 20 posts they automatically become another user group?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
