In the 1.4.xx branch of MyBB, is there an option to prevent certain users from starting an unlimited amount of threads? I´m looking for a way to limit some users from starting for example like more than three new threads in 24 hours, but i really cant seem to find any setting for that, if it even exists......

You are welcome. Glad to have been of help.
By default you can also limit post per day, ACP > Configuration > Posting > Maximum Posts Per Day.

Yes, you can but it is set for the whole forum and it affects all users. That is why I have expanded it further with this other plugin.

P.s. The OP asked for Maximum Threads per day btw Smile
I know, the plugin is a better solution, it was more of an FYI.
Thank you both, you are a well of knowlege :-)
