Limiting Simultaneous User to Stay Under Budget

[Harry Douglas]

The pricing on IPB cloud is tied to the number of simultaneous users online.  I'm on a very tight budget for what is essentially a vanity project.  So I would like to cap the number of users at my maximum so I don't ever get charged for having too many simultaneous users.  Is there a code to block new users and guests for accessing site when you reach a certain number?

Thanks

Follow-up Question:  Is there a way to automatically bounce some one off the site if they are just "lurking" on it for many hours.  I have a few members who simply sign in and never log off.  Is there a script or function that will bounce someone who is either inactive for a certain period of time, or simply after they have been on site for more than a certain period of time.

Thanks.
