Newbs starting threads

[Iceman_II]

Granted, I am kind of new here and I apologise if this has been asked and answered

But...

I am noticing a lot of threads started by people with less than 5 posts (many with only one) asking inane questions like "is <insert movie name here> out yet on BD" Some boards have a filter keeping you from starting a thread until you have a certain number of posts (ie, you have at least been around long enough to read a thread or two before you can start a thread)... has anyone thought about doing that here???

Granted, to paraphrase BTBuck1, new people here is a good thing. But do we need some kind of controls to cut down on the incessant posts of newbness?
