XF 2.2 Way to prevent new users from bumping old threads?

[GAD]

We have a problem where a new user comes in and posts a reply to an eight-year-old thread instead of starting a new one, even though they had to acknowledge that they're bumping an ancient thread (thanks to an add-on).

Is there any way to prevent this?

All of my new users are in a special usergroup until they get 10 posts, so a usergroup-based solution is fine.

Thanks!

No.

Handle it like you would any other site moderation issue.

Think about something like this possibly.

Thanks. I considered that but there are legitimate reasons to bump old threads so we don’t really want to lock them.
