I want to introduce a user role "Full Member" and to allow these members to post unmoderated comments and forum posts. This mainly to cut down on the manual moderation that would be needed.

I'm expecting the site to be large and busy, so would ideally like to automate this process. Would it be possible to make all Authenticated Users become Full Members as soon as they have made five posts or have been members for a month or some other criteria?

I've seen a few modules around that allow users to apply to become new roles, but little on the automated side. What about AutoMember? Is that a standard module? I wanted to have a look at it, but couldn't find a download and it seems very old too.

Maybe the Actions module.

For my part, I'd just make it a cron job, and run your update statement there.

Adam, the cron job sounds like the easiest solution. Would you be able to point me in the direction of some documentation as to how I would set up the cron job and what I'd need to use. Thanks.
