If you think that's unwelcoming, applications are even more so. Most people don't want to fill out an essay just to be allowed to participate.
If I had to fill out an application, I wouldn't be here, and I'm sure a lot of others wouldn't be either.
That's not to say that better methods shouldn't be implemented though.
An application doesn't have to be an essay. Feddit.dk has an application that literally just requires a sentence or two. It's really not a big barrier to entry.
For that matter - I'm okay with filtering out people who think it's too much effort. Quality over quantity.
Exactly my thoughts as well :)
I agree here. Filling out an application would have easily kept me out. Many may see that as a good thing though :)
