dyelton Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 We have a special group on our board for new members. They are part of this group until they have 10 posts. The reason for this group is to restrict the use of the PM system to curb spamming (we have a problem with real estate people, etc.) but the problem we have with this restriction is that moderators and admins can't PM that person. Would it be possible to have the ability to restrict PM *EXCEPT* to/from moderators/admins on the site? Thanks! :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spas1999 Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I tried a mod I found and it didn't work. So I just use e mail to contact the new members and vice versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krocheck Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I recall a mod for this for 2.0 ... go to Invisionize and see if someone is going to update it. I have it installed on my board and like the functionality it provides (obviously I have not upgraded to 2.1 yet) ... having this built in would be nice, I do agree.

Will L. Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 this is a group option in 2.1.1 just make a group called Trial Members have them not use PM and have them get promoted to Members after 10 posts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teddy Rogers Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Why not give those new mods and admins 10 posts to start off with, simple edit their number of posts... :) Ted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyelton Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Why not give those new mods and admins 10 posts to start off with, simple edit their number of posts... :) Ted. This defeats the entire purpose! I don't want new members with 0-9 posts to be able to PM/e-mail except back and forth with admins and moderators.
