How do i stop post count by Usergroup/User

[hinch]

I have 1 user on the forum who when his post count gets to 666 he stops posting with that account and start a new account.

Is it possiable to lock his post count at 666 so that it never increases nomatter how much he posts so i can delete all his other accounts and he can just use 1.

It keeps him happy and it stops me getting annoyed.

If its not possiable todo it per user is it possiable per user group? I can dump him into his own usergroup if it is.

actually very easy.

open functions_newpost.php

find:

PHP Code:

        if ($foruminfo['countposts'])
        {
            $bbuserinfo['posts'] += 1; 


and change into:

PHP Code:

        if ($foruminfo['countposts'] AND ($bbuserinfo['userid'] != xx OR $bbuserinfo['posts'] < 666))
        {
            $bbuserinfo['posts'] += 1; 


that should keep the user with id xx at 666 posts.
when one post is deleted, it will be get down to 665 but with one post made it'll increase to 666 again.
it'll never get to 667
