anyway... I STILL think it is worth consideration to limit the lounge, and maybe even a few other areas to members that have been around for awhile

Alas, it is not that easy. For instance, in this particular thread, the last user who has been interrupting the discussion with racist remarks has been a member here for almost two years, and he has made normal posts in the past. While restricting access may turn away the most obvious of trolls, it's not a solution to prevent some individuals from showing their worst when disagreeing with a topic.
Like I said, we're looking into this and contemplating solutions.
