Under `settings > users` you can define permissions for a `group` and/or `user` that determine what entries the user(s) are allowed to view, edit, delete, etc. If you uncheck 'create new entries' then they will no longer be able to post to that section. For more information see the [users documentation](http://buildwithcraft.com/docs/users).
