If you turn off new accounts, how do you know you're not pushing away 10 high quality new users to avoid one negative user signing up?

The only thing I could suggest would be to lower the bar for downvote capability. Or is that not an option at all? I thought I was told at some point that once you reach 200 "karma" you get that ability, but I don't have it.

I thought it was 500 karma, and gets periodically karma inflation adjusted.
