RE: No Excuses, Let's Create Solutions.
I'm on my phone so I am a bit to lazy to do quotes,
Would my FB or LinkedIn suffice? My professional background? I mean national director on a presidential campaign should cover that, or campaign manager on a us Senate race would cover that would it not?
Taking a candidate down 22% up to down 4% in under a month, in order to help my former party, is a legitimate claim to my organizational and fast paced problem solving skills would it not be?
But in the community I am known as Joe, ChainsmokerJoe or Tirin depending on the platform,
And my involvement on the political side of our movement is quite extensive in protecting Blockchain in the United States, on a level exclusively preventing them from restricting us of our freedoms.
Now correct me if I am wrong, but you absolutely can post to Steemit without any SP or SBD, if I am wrong on that then correct then that idea is useless.
But If it is not, then they would earn that ability to interact quickly if introduceyourself also had mentorship and other tags associated with it, and of veterans on the platform felt more of an obligation to move it forward.
Because what I see currently is ghost accounts being created, botted out and used to upvote people's posts.
It absolutely could cover that. If it was provably true. Which is hard to do when nobody can link @thatguyjoe to whoever you claim it should be linked in real life. Are you Paul Manafort ? :-)
No you cannot. Accounts are not really free, even if they might seem like that. This is why this platform doesn't already have 1 billion accounts like the Zuck's. When you create an account you are granted a small sum (around 2 steem) from the pool of Steemit Inc (which is limited, otherwise steem could not claim to be like money); and you are lent another 13 SP (technically you are lent around 27 000 VESTS). That's why it takes so long to get a "free" account.
People who create ghost accounts have to pay for them. Not a lot, about 5 to 6 steem (and lend the rest) but still, they have to pay something. These people must be people who have considerable steem wealth and want to increase it even further through any means.

Is the LinkedIn but it's so poorly updated.
That being said. Everyone knows me as "that guy Joe"
It's kind of a joke. Don't know how masternodes work "go ask that guy Joe"
Need to raise X for a project "go ask that guy Joe"
Need miners setup.
Need to sell OTC
Need to understand margins..

You get it lol
I am sure my contract list on there with enough of the others in the industry can vouch for my credibility on that note.
Now that i understand that better, your proposal makes much more sense.
And how ghosting is even worse for the community, and why minnow booster has so many accounts that are literally just worth votes no $$$.
All ghosts, and it also explains why they struggle with keeping high SBD votes.
Which means there is a lot more to discuss, and steps needed to solve the prblem without sacrificing the annonimity of the platform and not requiring essentially kyc to get an account.
