Monitoring forum posts

Our client has asked if they could have some sort of monitoring system on selected users posts.

Every now and then, the admins have to keep an eye on certain users because of the content of their posts.

I can create a new tab in the skin so that they can enter a comma seperated list of user_ids or usernames.

After successfully writing a module to sync username and profilename I've set about writing a module to monitor forum posts but I am struggling to find the correct function to listen for to get it all working.

Anyone point me to the correct function I need to listen to ?

So there's a CSV somewhere that is a list of '_user_id's and admins want to be alerted if one of them posts on the forum?
If that is the case, listen 'db_create_item' then if its a Forum item and the creator is on the list, alert admins.
