Are you trying to make it so no members can write in a specific section? Or are you trying to make it so only some members can post and some can't?
brandon_g wrote:The method I showed you is still the only you can do this without banning members. You have to put all members EXCEPT those you dont want to post in a group, and then follow the steps above. The problem with that is then you have to manually add new members to the group whenever you get new members, or they won't be able to post.
Honestly it would probably just be easier to either just ban those users or just delete their posts when they do post, atleast thats what I would do.

You have to create one new group to your forum. You then have to add all the members you want to NOT be able to post to those sections you want. Then when you change the permissions as brandon said, you select that group NOT to be able to post. All other members will still be able to post but the difference here is that you have to create a new group to add in there those you DON'T want to have the power to post.
It is not difficult, but it is the only way to make certain users not be able to post, via the permissions.
