Hiya, this is a cry for help.
Is it possible to make a mod that can limit the amount one member can post to a forum..on a day to day bases?.. I would not want the mod to inform the member that they have run out of "credit".. it would need to just act like it was posting still or cause some kind of error to them. I know this sounds an evil mod to want but I have a good reason.. lol
Thank you for any help with this. x<

That shouldn't be too difficult. Let me see what I can throw together.<

Working on it, have to run some tests to make sure all the "errors" function in the desired manner.<

You may want to reconsider having this mod appear to be an "error". As a forum user, I would rather know that you were limiting my posts to a certain number per day than to simply be unable to post because of some made up error. The other negative effect this could have is that your users may leave for websites that don't always have a bunch of "errors".
Of course, depending on the users/traffic on your site, you may not care about the above. But it's something to think about.<

The "errors" will only appear to people designated as limited, after they reach their quota per day, and will have random line numbers, etc. I think Tweety will grow tired of getting not only the post attempts made but now constant PMs and/or EMails from the post-aholic complaining about the errors she is encountering.<
