True, but those good users who are truely interested in joining the community will come back and overcome such resistance. Heavy filtering costs you bad actors(protecting your existing community) and _some_ good contributors.

IMO the trust system is pretty good. Most of our users bump to trust level 1 after reading 10 topics and 15 minutes read time.
