Is there a way to like warn a user if he/she breaks the forum rules like spam or something? only thing i see is ban. My idea was to create a new role called warned or something

@marcelderadmin you can indeed create a new user role with limited privileges and move certain users to it. I don't believe there's such a feature as Warnings

Also if you have the Private Messages addon you can send them a private message warning them personally that they have moved to this particular category because of breaking forum rules etc.

Hi @marcelderadmin,

I agree with @realact suggestions.

besides, there are some useful options to limit just registered users and minimize spam. To check it just navigate to the Dashboard > Forums > Tools > Antispam > New Registered User section an check the options. See the screenshot below:
