I run a political website and as you can imagine I have to watch what people with opposing views post: sometimes they will post offense comments or just spam me with crap. I had run WPWall and loved it. But even with only allowing registered users to comment on WP Wall, I'd still get people who registered, and then posted these problematic comments. So I have to remove it.
Now I'm thinking of another use for WP Wall. But I'd need to limit it to trusted users. Just registered users is not enough to keep the people out I don't want in. So, I was thinking I'd set up that plugin that allows you to create additional user groups and their privileges (can't remember the name). But is there some way I'm not thinking of that I can tell WP Wall to just allow the user group I have set up? That would be a great new feature, by the way, instead of just registered users checkbox, allow us to click off which user groups are allowed to post on the wall.

Only allow certain user groups to post to WP Wall?

You can use wp wall in combination with almost any anti comment spam plugin (lots out there).
