How it works?
This plugin will automatically prevent displaying whole post by NEW member who have specified minus reputation (default setting for this plugin is -3). This is good way with soft-approach to give a lesson for spammer or regular member, without banning or warn them. This can be done automatically, by let other members involve to give a negative reputation. After minus 3 reputation reach, then all posts by this member will disappear and replaced by a custom notification that teach other new member not doing the same thing (Spam/wrong rule posting).
Don't worry, it will not affecting to member who have many reputation even they have 3 minus reputation. This is safe applied on new member only.
