Delayed access to a forum

Delayed access to a forum
Heya all,

I'm looking for a way to provide people with "delayed access" to a forum. That is, I'd like to require that someone be registered for 48 hours before they have access to a specific forum. (not all the forums) They can have access but I'd like to "hide" the actual posts from them.

An even better solution for me would be to allow people access to the forum only if they had been to the forums in the past 48 hours. Check to see when was the last time someone visited the forums, if it has been longer than 48 hours, then they need to wait for that long before they can access the forum.

This will enable only frequent visitors to access a certain forum.

Anyone have ideas how I can do this?

Safe swoops

It would certainly need a plugin, and should be possible using primarily the 'auth_forum_perm' hook.
