Pinned List of Recommended Researchers to Avoid

Submit your researchers (as suggested recently in this post) and I will compile a master list that we can hopefully get pinned. As you comment, please check out other people's recommendations and let us know if you agree/disagree and please be descriptive on why you think any particular researcher should be on the list. I think this is a great idea, this is a topic that comes up commonly and gets discussed a lot. At the very least, we’ll have at least a post to reference with researchers that people recommend avoiding. Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Apparently it’s not very likely this will get pinned, but I still think it’s worth trying to compile a list and discussing why you tend to avoid them.
