Title: Why is it so difficult to open an account on Steemit? Post by: hienyimba on May 31, 2017, 06:23:29 PM Been an unregd member for quiet some time lurking in the shadows. I finally decided to open an account and its straight to hell gawddamn awful. I understand they are having problems with growth. Maybe they should start from there. Any Steemit rep in here, pls take note. :-[

It wouldn't prevent spam, it would just move people to verify their account with fake and/or paid phone numbers. I don't get why they bother.

They also use captcha, need email verification etc. >:( >:( Like wtf? are they like a Steemit Exchange or something? Title: Re: Why is it so difficult to open an account on Steemit?

Account has few nice posts, one follower and a good, easy to remember username(5leters, staring with a). You are a newbie so You will have to go first with payments.

You are a hero member so you can give it free. He can give it for free with any rank (not sure why being a Hero is required), but poptok doesnt want to as there is money value on the account. It's a free market, and he can do whatever he wants (which I really doubt it give away the account for free). He could probably sell it to others for similar prices as well. |
