@ the bold: You answered your own question.
Just know that a person's character, reputation, and lifestyle are the 'soft criteria' that are also taken into consideration for membership - whether it is fair or not, it is done.
In this age of 24/7, everything on social media, it is harder to hide who you are these days. Back in my day of joining, it was all word of mouth which may or may not have been true, so it was easy to ignore. Now, not at all when people post everything about their life on the web.
