Require email	Only approve members who provide an email in their answers
Require all questions answered	Member must answer every membership question
Keyword matching	Approve if answers contain specific words (e.g. "yes", your brand name)
Minimum answer length	Require detailed responses above a character count

Set rules to automatically decline requests that do not meet your standards:

Declined members can optionally receive an automated decline message. See Welcome Messages.

Start with one strict rule (e.g. require email) and loosen as needed
Use keyword matching to filter for engaged members who mention how they found you
