I hardly ever use vBulletin 4, but I'll take a look, shouldn't be too hard.

Stay tuned.

I'm aware there is a plugin that allows stuff based on your post count already.
But that product also blocked coded links, and I don't need all the other permissions.
So, this is a simple alternative that doesn't block coded links, but restricts live links.

Will this block images posted using BB code or html img tags?

Thanks. Excellent addon If I could make some suggestions, add :

1. Exempted forums : Allow exemption from some forums where there is heavy patrolling by mods and allowing newbies to post links can be useful.

2. Exempted domains : It wont hurt to allow people posting links from your own forum, google or Wikipedia. Allow exemption of some domains.
