You know what would be nice? Moderator verification of messages by certain users. For example, when I have one or two troublesome users, but not *all* of their posts are bad, it would nice if I could put them in suspension. Now every time they post, that info goes into a waiting area, and a moderator or higher can approve or deny the message.

It would be nice to do this system wide, just for a board, or just for a unique user.

When the message is approved it gets posted in the proper area. When denied, it gets thrown out and a message is sent to the user, telling them that their post was denied. IN addition, I think a bulk 'approve/deny' method would be good too.

Thougts?

Post moderation has been brought up, but I think it hasn't been decided on yet.

Would this go for new topics or all messages? I think I see a way of doing this with permissions.

All messages, I think, but not of all users. That would be a very nice feature! I have some of those members, where this function would be great for!

darn, if it were for new topics only, it _might_ be able to be done with permissions.

No, it would be all messages, but on a per user basis.

What if I kowtow? Would that inspire you guys to maybe make it happen? Eh? I'm not below that ya know!

good idea.. if moderators for the relevant section can do the authorisation.

I made a mod for this for YABB SE. If it doesn't get included in the release I'll ensure I port my mod over for those who want it...

WOO HOO! Hey, where is your YSE mod? I would go scrounging, but I figure you have easier access to it than I.

On the completed mods board on the yabbse forum

You can either use the advanced visual warning mod which includes it or the post moderation mod which is probably on the second page of the board

Of course we know how to do it
