The criteria is that you don't sound like a bot or spammer.
Well I said that I wanted to move from reddit out of protest, I am interested in exploring their communities, and that I generally don't post but I vote and comment occasionally.
So they either have terrible judgement to think of me as a bot or spammer, or there is some other reason. I mean, that's their prerogative, but it is discouraging.
This doesn't seem true to me. I put my application reason as (very close to): "To share my personality and views." And I was rejected. While I'm not bitter, since they can do what they want, that doesn't seem very bot or spammy to me.
