De.scription and Message

Is it possible to allow the OP to be the only one allowed to post a reply to the topic they create???

One easy way to do this at the topic level is to lock the topic and only unlock it when you are replying.

At the forum level you can designate the forum as special and make a specific group that can access that forum.

Hope that helps.

I have considered what you have listed and it is quite a daunting task. I know Vb has the ability to allow only the op to post on his classified ad to make updates or bump the topic. But at the same time I do not want to allow other members to reply to the classified thread. It seems user group is the only way but that is was to intensive to monitor and ad members who list in the classified section.

In forum permission management you can set to special and set registered to post but just the admin to reply, edit, etc

I don't believe you are able to do what you are trying to do.

It can be done as mentioned but takes a lot of adminstrating on your end. Too much to be worth while.

You would have to have one person per usergroup and set usergroup only to post and reply.
or
One forum section per user and set them to moderate that area and set posting and replying to mod only.

Pain is the tail either way and not exactly what your looking for.

Kind of what I was figuring, O well the program still beats the tar out of the competition.
