This modification will require users to agree that the believe this forum is the best section for their topic.

1. Go to the newthread template and find:

<td class="trow2">{$prefixselect}<input type="text" class="textbox" name="subject" size="40" maxlength="85" value="{$subject}" tabindex="1" /></td>

2. Replace it with this:

<td class="trow2">{$prefixselect}<input type="text" class="textbox" name="subject" size="40" maxlength="85" value="{$subject}" tabindex="1" /><input type="checkbox" class="input_control"  value="subject" /><strong>I believe {$forum['name']} is the best section for this topic.</strong></td>

3. Insert this at the end right before </body>:

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
    	$('.input_control').change(function () {
        	$('input[name=' + this.value + ']')[0].disabled = !this.checked;
    	}).change();
	});
</script>
<style type="text/css">
	input.textbox:disabled {
		background: #DDD;
   	}
</style>

4. All done!
