Than you

Good to hear!

You know, instead of or in addition to the postcount, how would you feel about giving a date for the restriction to be lifted?

Actually I don't include in the message the post count with code {1}
because I don't want them to know why they are restricted. In all messages I begin with the phrase "Temporarily you are..." I think this way user don't think to make another registration. So same thought is informing user that in 3 months restrict will end.

Yes, you could choose not to display the date, just as you've chosen not to display the post count they need to get the restriction lifted. It would just give you another option. I was just thinking, I would rather ban a user from a thread for say 7 days rather than until they reach a certain post count.

Yes that's a good idea, to ban for 7 or more less. situations for members are different for each of them, must focus what is the problem that each one makes to forum and ban individual. So as many option we have that's the best.

Okay, I will add that option, and I also think we should give the option for a daily cron job to be run that will remove items from the restrictions lists where the restrictions have been lifted.
