And if we were to say that membership is only open to active writers, i.e. those with a WIP would that help?
As you said, it would exclude people we do want here (as well as excluding people we don't, and who have sufficient debating skills to argue that they are active writers, so why are we excluding them?). Also, not everybody who is and active writer has a WIP all the time-- it would exclude me at the moment, for example, because everything I have is stalled.
(And I'm still more or less against doing it here: already I get flustered tracking down the various parts of this discussion.)
