  In a multi-user blog, Can i restrict users from posting after a certain period of time?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  If you set them as Contributors rather than Authors, I believe they cannot publish at all until you approve their posts. http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/

  Thanks for your quick reply..

  What i had in mind was: i give them a window where they can post stuff on the blog. Once the window is closed, the blog becomes a readonly.

  yes a Contributor needs their stuff approved, so as @RC noted above, just downgrade people to Contributor, it is not automatic, if you have a person as Contributor you can upgrade them in a few seconds. And you can always just delete them from the blog, but if you want them to contribute again, they would need to be invited again
