So we want to encourage people to assemble more solid-sounding cases for not joining?

I think what we want to encourage is that "I haven't the time because I'm working on X" is acceptable; or better yet, silence. "Your website is the wrong font" is what we need to get away from.

Do you mean people are actually saying "I won't join, because your fonts suck"? Or are they just dropping messages to the effect that your fonts suck into your suggestions box, and not joining - and the connection is surmised?
