XF 2.1 Hide certain nodes and make them optional

[spk100]

I have a section in my forum for political discussions and this is causing a lot of headache.
I don't want to remove but make it optional for users via a checkbox in their user control panel.

Like when someone registers this forum is hidden by default, but if they select it from their control panel, it is shown.

Is this possible?
