Occasionally we all have users who break the rules. There's a "User Warning" mod just for the occasion. But suppose you want to take a misbehaving user out of the general population ... but don't want to ban him/her until the user has a chance to rebut/explain.
Enter the Amnesty mod....
The Amnesty MOD is designed for administrators who (1) have a need for occasionally restricting users who misbehave and need reminding of forum rules, and (2) who have already installed both the Events Mod & the User Groups Mod.
Steps for Use: Create a forum category which only contains one area (I called mine "Correctional Custody"). Then, using the User Groups Mod, create a user group which has access to ONLY that area. Misbehaving users will be assigned to that User Group.
The Amnesty MOD provides administrators with a random-number generator which will select a date from a range that you choose (1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year). Then put that date into the Events calendar as a "General Amnesty" date on which you release any/all users who are currently in custody.

Carefree I couldn't locate the post for the usergroups mod. I installed the usergroup mod and have a question. Does a usergroup setup overrides the forum setup? For example, let us say I have a private forum A which has one allowed member X. If I set up a usergroup in which I deny members of the group from accessing forum A, does X get denied From forum A as well or not?

Yes, X would be denied access to A, thus he couldn't spell Xavier.< |
