we will continue to impress more and more reddit power users, their "followers" will folow them here to steemit in massive subreddit Exodeses when SubReddit mods start to ask for money from Redits corporate ofices, they will respond wil "firing" their un paid "workers" and attempting to ba, delete, or "archive" popular subreddits to the point that they will siply be google searching for a popular CENSORSHIP FREE DECEENTRALIZED platform and ONLY steemit will show up! We have a PERFECt track record when it comes to censorship! Some people complain that "whales" covered up the "pizzagate" posts which is not true theres plenty of popular pizzagate posts here on steemit, and IF a whale "flags" a post it is not super influential like whenthey Upvote! And no one whae can take the ability of a user to make money off their post here! AND if you DONT like how much influence a whale might have, you just have to spend the money and get the steempower to become a whale yurself!
We have rules and if you dont like it, change them! It costs money but tere is NO other barrier to entry! ANYONE can join steemit and become a whale, OR just find someone whose already on steemit and power THEM up and have THEM do your bidding! Anyone would be willing to do that! And noone can take away a steemit account!
And if you WANTED to you could make your own steemit account without the developers permissions! youre just not smart enough!
I will admit it is suspicious that you ahve to "apply" for an account here on steemit.....I bellueve anyone even an ISIS terrorist or a pedophile should be able to openly join and have an ISIS or pedo account name and everything WITHOUT anyones permissions IF THIS TRULY WAS a decentralized platform.......the same way anyone can open a bitcoin wallet....how does that work? I have heard from steemit devs tat eventually anyone will eb abl to join steemit......
and as of now, IS there actually any "application" process review OR is it just some way to ensure peopel dont singup multipel accounts to abuse the system? You devs arent acually doing bacgroudn checks on us or anything? Anyone actualy can join steemit the waitiing list is just to do wth the rewards pool and giving everyone a little bit of free steepower to star with, right?
Like 4chan for example is more open thats temit where anyone can create an anonymous post, at anytime, without having to apply for an account
will steemit have something like this? where we can just opt for an anonymous steemit account that declines steem paouy but allows anonymous posting or commenting?
again i apologize if I am wrong in my assesment that its is not truley decentralized if there is any barrier to entry at all, especial like we have now with what seems to be an "application process" to join..
i LOVE this system i ALWAYS defend it and find myself defending it against youtube naysayers EVERYDAY now and I will KEEP defending it EVEN if the price of steem drops to a PENNY I would still be happy! I think thats why steemit will remain so successful the fact of how many people share that sentiment with me
You don't need anyone's permission to join the Steemit network:

Oh i see its from @someguy123 not you welll u should create your own post that just reduces that post into one link! an explains how to do it for free since he is charging people for anonymity lol
Creating an account always costs money. Steem INC covers the cost of the "free" account they give you. That's why they ask for your phone number and/or other ID information, so someone can't get hundreds of "free" accounts from them.
The witnesses set something called an "account creation fee". Sorry I don't have the exact number at the moment but it tends to be something around 5-15 Steem, or 5 to 15 usd.
Right now, it costs 15 STEEM, which is roughly $13.50 - but it fluctuates depending on who's in the top 19, and when people change their prices.
