This might be a terrible execution of this idea that will cut the amount of discussion on HN by a large amount. Maybe even by 90%. This puts the onus on the older members of the community to do even more work administrating the site -- for every comment posted there need to be a couple of users with karma > 1000 to endorse it, and they will need to literally work to allow comments through.
