Have looked but then again i'm a blind squirrel. Is there a sin bin mod or could one be made? I would like something so problem members could be sin binned for a certain time, say 2 weeks or 4 weeks depending on Admin or Moderators decision. During this time they will be able to read the forum but not post. Would also like it to send an email to that member with a place for Admin or Mods to put an explanation why they have been binned.<

Sin Bin ? Ah, I see....you might want to try and search for the probation mod. Sounds similar.<

Either that or you could use the UserGroups MOD to set up a "Read Only" group and move them there. They wouldn't be moved out until you manually moved them out though.<

Thankyou for the help. I've been thinking about the UserGroups mod so this would be a good reason to put it in.<

Usergroups mod won't work for this if your members are smart.
If logged out, members can click on the "post link", enter their username and password, and still post...<

simply adding usergroup checks to the normal checks in post_info would get around that fairly easily, very quickly and roughly simply adding the check to where post_info redirects non-members would get around it.<

Erm, I just downloaded the usergroups mod from this topic and it already covers that... the first instance of usergroups in post_info.asp prevents anyone banned from a forum from posting...<

I downloaded the same one, and it didn't have that...
What code exactly is supposed to prevent this?<

Code:
	if isReadOnly(Forum_ID,MemberID) = 1 then
		Go_Result "Your access to this forum is read-only"
	end if

Nope, this code doesn't prevent the problem.
Let me give you an example.
Go here: http://www.schoolofduel.com/bbs/forum.asp?forum_id=18

Log in as
Username: Test Account
Password: Snitz

Trying post while logged in, you can't. Now, log out and manually try to post where you enter your password and username separately each time when prompted. Then, you can still post all you want. How can this be fixed?<
