Surely you jest. Why 2000 though? Why not some other number? By the way, I also downvoted this suggestion, and no, I'm not a "troll", I just think this is a really silly idea.

Rapid and daily is what matters. Blitz and bullet is just how fast you are.
Exactly! I couldn't agree more. Rapid and daily are far more a test of skill, how well you plan ahead and set traps for your opponent to fall into, but when I'm playing a three or one minute game I almost always lose because I just run out of time, because I'm not very fast.

This is a chess forum and some people here want to see how to actually improve their chess by looking at which posts have the most upvotes. Except the posts with good advice get downvoted into oblivion by low rated trolls.
By restricting upvotes and downvotes to higher rated players who are clearly improving their chess and not trolling, people can clearly see which posts are legit.
Wow, you've been complaining for a long time about many things (on this thread and several others)! How about you get a life? Adopt a dog and go hiking, get a girlfriend or better yet, spend time studying chess instead of dissing those with lower ratings. You are not better than others because of your rating and that is how it comes across even if that's not what you meant. 
Someone might be new to this website, even new to the game, but that doesn't mean they lack common sense and if I see someone making sense, I have the right to upvote them. Period.

These 'Only players' threads need to stop.
If someone posts and get a high volume of downvotes, that should tell them something important. Unfortunately, some never figure out that they might have some issues. Hopefully they grow out of it. 
I thought these types of threads were dead Ngl.
