I have a bit confusing about the Group Promotions .
I want all the new register user have first 3 post moderation .

1) So I tick all Moderation Options in Registered Group .

2) Create a new user group example " Verify" .

3) Create Group Promotions
   Setting : 
*Promotion Requirements  -  Post Count
*Post Count - ( set to 3 ) - ( Less than or equal  to )
*Original User Group  -  ( Set to Registered )
* New User Group - ( Set to verify )
* User Group Change Type  - ( Set to Secondary User Group )

So am i correct ?
Because now the new user still can post without moderation .
So i have confuse now .

.... that might be your problem

and Registered User Group should be set with

Moderation Options
Moderate new posts?  YES
Moderate new threads?  YES
I answered this a little awhile ago for another support thread.

Go to Users & Groups > Groups > Add New User Group
- Fill all the fields
- copy the permissions from registered

Go to Users & Groups > Groups > Choose the Registered group > Forums and Posts
-Scroll down to Moderation Options and check Moderate New Posts / Moderate New Threads

Now go back to Users & Groups > Group Promotions > Add New Promotion
- Give the promotion a title and description
- Promotion Requirements: Post Count
- Post count: 3 (Greater than or equal to)
- New user group: The new group you had made
- Usergroup change type: Primary usergroup
- Everything else you can leave as is

What this will do is, users in the registered group will have their posts monitored until they reach 5 posts. Once they have reached the 5 posts, they will then be moved to the new usergroup you had created (no monitoring).

Also I should mention that group promotions aren't immediate. It takes a 10 minutes or a little more before it updates the users group.
