Skip down to the bottom for the tl;dr version
I honestly am sick and tired of seeing people being unfairly banned from lobbies because they have high hours or they play in a high division. It's really unfair to those who get banned.
If the lobby leader doesn't want plat players joining, then there should be some sort of hour restriction or lobby restriction (if you have over "x" hours you can't join).
It's gotten to the point where people who keep getting banned from lobbies due to their hours or div they play in have started using alts so they don't get banned.
It's ridiculous that someone should get banned because of hours, whether it's because they have too little or too many, it needs to stop.

It's obvious if the lobby leader is purposefully banning people with low or high hours on purpose, all you have to do is check their TF2Center profiles.
tl;dr
What I'm suggesting is
Lobby leaders should have an option to make a max number of hours limit just like they can a min number of hours limit. If they don't and they start banning people because of their hours, they should get banned or something.
