A barrier to what? I notice that you’ve spent over three years and almost 2,500 posts discussing various aspects of Plasma Cosmology. What has been accomplished as a result of that? What revolutionary breakthroughs? What brilliant new insights? How many mainstream members have you managed to convert to PC believers? What exactly are you clinging to? If and when a valid PC model ever becomes available, I highly doubt it will make its premiere debut on a message board.

Personally, I think 30 days is more than enough. Most of the ATM discussions I’ve participated in consisted of about 10% directly supportive ATM material and 90% conflicting and misinformation that needed to be explained (often repeatedly, sometimes ad nausea) by other members and moderators. How is that productive?
