Found the solution, It turns out that I had missed this blog post before upgrading to 1.4.x:
./nodebb buildRanking System

Hi,
I've successfully set up my first nodeBB Forum, and it looks really good. But there's one big problem with it, and I didn't find any solutions in the internet yet: I want to have something like a Ranking-System, so I could configure, that if someone has posted more than 50 times, he gets a specific rank. If he gets more than 100, he gets another one. The Ranks should have different permissions, and i should be able to configure, that you can't get one rank (like "mod" or "admin" or "supporter"), only if I give it to you.
It would be really good, if somebody out there would know a plugin which does this work, or knows a solution without a plugin.
Thanks in advance,
Benni -
