Keep in mind we do not requeire an account "be for STEM" in the sense that they are under no obligation to limit their posts to stem topics or discuss stem. We only require the person be a STEM professional or enthusasts.

As @arteteco put it once. This should be like a watercooler scientists come to to relax and chat.

Considering you do not know the answer to that question it implies you shouldnt have an account on this server. We require users know what STEM is and be a part of it to be here.

@freemo @k11m1 @snow @arteteco @design_RG I think being unfamiliar with the exact term is ok (especially for non-English speakers) as long as they can understand what it means.

I agreem, for sure.

But considering we use the term STEM in our description indicating it as a requirement for membership it still has certain implications. It suggests they didnt know the server is a STEM exclusive server and therefore are likely not in STEM themselves.

Of course, regardless if they happen to be in STEM and just didnt know the rule before hand but by happy coincidence it fits them all the same, then they would be welcome to stay.
