50 posts before you can send a pm

I would like this option on all forums, where members can only send private messanges to people only if they have previously done 50 post or soo. Because i've been getting members from other forums just sending private messanges to my members, they could be trying to poaching my members. and the only options at the moment is disable private messanges or banning them to send a private message. i think this 3rd option to set how many post they do have to do before the can send a private message would be good for these forums.

this can be done manually post a topic to your members tell them to pm you when they reach 50 posts for you to decide wether to turn them on or not.. If you want it automatically, members can just make rubbish posts to reach 50 (play games, jokes, one word answers) and spam anyhow.

my forum has got to many members now to go through the member list and disable users pms

i think a option like this would make life alot easyer for forum like my

good

it would make life easier i am sure but in the time it would take for this feature to be added you could do it. I set 579 members to no pm in less than an hour, when i introduced a supporting member feature, a perk being private messaging

well i haven't got time to do that i'm the only admin on my forum i think that is just pain to keep putting people on then off after they get upto some many post, a option would be 100 time better then doing that

good idea

would be cool to make this an on/off config setting: "x number of posts before pm is active" yes / no, and x can be edited by the admin

very good idea!..i agree!There should be a option like this!

i think that the pm is not a type of "the great advantage" ?!
it is a type of communicating not only wit h members but also with admins for any problems.
i ll also be conducive to spamming. sorry i vote no
