Obviously I wasn't around when TS was created, but I'd make a bet that it got pretty inactive pretty quickly and has been this way ever since.
In addition, what's wrong with the org accepting people who aren't amazing at aikido, but have a love for it themselves?
By greatly limiting recruiting (as this conversation seems to be straying towards), those people that want to join but get rejected will create unofficial aikido orgs (team aikido big dojo for example) which just spam up shit everywhere.
I'm fine with having a minimal skill level, so that people work to join, but don't be elitist pricks please. There's enough of them I have to avoid around the TB community as it is.
