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.

Thank you Carefree, it seemed to me well that they was these two there! But not sour. the translation of English to French plays me of the turns with altavista.<

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.<
