Hello,
I'm looking into moving our gaming guild to nodebb but to do so I'm looking for a feature that is something like an approval system for new users.

If you know guildwork.com - it as this type of approval system - for those who want to take a look there you can create a new account without email verification to see how this could look like from the backend.
As a flow chart maybe:
