# Restrict permissions of new members
|
|
|
|
{!owner-only.md!}
|
|
|
|
In large Zulip organizations where
|
|
[anyone can join](/help/restrict-account-creation#set-whether-invitations-are-required-to-join), it can
|
|
be useful to restrict what new members can do, to make it easier to cope
|
|
with spammers and confused users.
|
|
|
|
Members are **new members** from when they join till when their account ages
|
|
past a certain **waiting period** threshold. After that they are **full members**.
|
|
You can configure how long the waiting period is, as well as which actions require
|
|
being a full member.
|
|
|
|
For some features, Zulip supports restricting access to only full members. These
|
|
features include [creating channels](/help/configure-who-can-create-channels),
|
|
[inviting users to the organization](/help/invite-new-users),
|
|
[adding custom emoji](/help/custom-emoji#change-who-can-add-custom-emoji),
|
|
and many more.
|
|
|
|
