I think you might have been reading it wrong, or Maia didn't explain it well enough. But it says -unless- you are recommended you have to meet that criteria. And that in itself is literally just saying you're not joining just because you are bored and it sounds fun, and that you'll contribute to the forums, either posting or just reading (Because that is a large part of the concept)
It's just at the point where there's a lot of inactive members in the LS, so it's just a way to select people who are actually interested in RP'ing it, I don't believe the conditions are at all restrictive, are they? (And don't get me wrong, not trying to argue here just I am obviously biased since I know what the concept is, Maia's list just seems to be asking new people to actually be interested rather than just wanting to try it out for the hell of it. Because running intro scenes for 10 people a week who never RP again is quite time consuming)
