Ok.

Here is the 'end result' I would like - can someone please tell me how to do this? We've never had to do this before - but we're finding the need with a new forum we've created.

User joins
Confirms email
Requires Admin Approval
(We've got that so far)
We want to keep their posts from being posted until they are moderated (reviewed)

All users must be 'moderated' until they reach X number of posts.

We want this to be automatic.

Please, someone help me...I feel retarded (and I'm not, I swear!)

You can set "follow forum moderation rules" (or something like that) to no in their usergroup so all their posts are moderated, and then use the promotions system to promote users when they reach x amount of posts.
