It is a tough balance, and I don’t envy y’all for it. Something akin to “actively involved in the production of scientific knowledge” might not feel so restrictive. (I have not thought this suggestion entirely through, feel free to toss it or go with something better if you have it).

If you need more help keeping the conspiracy-theorists & bad-faith trolls out, you can probably recruit some more volunteers to help w that.

@dantheclamman @FrankSonntag @steve @RARohde @VictorVenema Also, I think it's okay to be explicit in what the group is *not* looking for. Might be easier than trying to wrangle hyper-specific rules without stating their intent.

Perhaps "This forum is not interested in pseudo-science conspiracy theorists or bad-faith trolls demanding debates." (Again, just a quick suggestion, def needs better crafting.) It wouldn't screen everyone (nothing does) but makes it easy to ban folks doing just that.
