First time user moderation in Gather forums
It would be really helpful if there was a process to moderate new users and mark them as certified if they are participating constructively, and moderate their posts if they are not.
Here are some scenarios:
New user posts for the first time
- Post goes directly to moderation queue
- If post is accepted, it's published and the user is marked "certified" (or some other appropriate term)
- If post is rejected, it's not published and the user is not marked "certified"
- It would be great if the user was sent an email about why the post was not accepted. Being able to select from a series of macro-like responses for the email message would be even greater.
Any user posts
- system checks if the user is certified
- if user is certified, post goes through
- if user is not certified, post goes to the moderation queue
Track users that have had multiple posts rejected
- A dashboard in the moderation area shows a lists of users whose posts have been rejected multiple times (5 is probably a good number) and there is an option to ban them
List of banned users
- Throwing this in here as it would be useful to see a full list of all banned users
This would help us quite a lot, as it would train users that their non-productive posts won't appear on the forums. And it would let our active participants continue to post.

Thanks a lot for these suggestions, Carrie! I definitely think these are good ideas and ones that we need to look at.

This would be excellent to have as most any Forums software has at least some level of user moderation like this.

This functionality would significantly reduce the amount of manual overhead required for our community moderation, are there any updates on this Kasper Sorensen?
