Let's turn HN into a place where we all grow old together until it slowly dies when we do.

  That's indeed the problem with restricting new users. Existing community members always want to do that, but it's a recipe for not surviving.

    I'm hoping to do a show HN soon on something I've been working on, but my account is currently only 6 days old. Tips? Btw, restricting new accounts (based on karma/age/whatever) could be combined with the option to ask mods for permission somehow, although that'd have to be done in a way that that doesn't become too much work.

      Be an active participant. Engage in other discussions threads with curiosity and generosity. Ask good questions, share interesting perspectives. Show you’re human and thoughtful. The system has long been that anyone can email the mods and ask us to review their project, but the volume has grown so much in recent weeks that it’s hard to get much else done.
