#steemit-account
Steemit what is going on?
For 4 days several people have tried to register and it turns out to be impossible. Why? Why? Why?
I tried to give them a hand and open an account but I received exactly the same notifications and problems (the same issues I bumped into when I tried to open my account years ago.).
It is demotivating to start if "the system" keeps telling you your phone number is wrong (no it is NOT) and the activation code never arrives (not in the spam box, not in the unwanted mail, nowhere to be found not even after days) or it arrives 30 minutes later and you have only 60 seconds to fill it out! (steem mobile app @bangla.witness how can this be? Is registration only meant for those in Bangladesh?).
Email addresses tried:
- Gmail: not one single code arrived - I asked friends and my children if I could use their e-mails and phone numbers
- Hotmail: the codes were received 20-30 minutes later and can no longer be used although in the e-mail it's said that it can be used for 30 minutes (no way, this is impossible).
Phone numbers tried
- All phone numbers are never used for Steemit, new and not once a code was received.
boylikegirl.club - the site
Why not try them I thought? I might have better tried them first because at least they tell me that the account already exists. A useless account since it has never been activated with a code! How many of these accounts does Steemit count by now?
@boylikegirl.wit's site also mentioned that not only does the account exist, but the e-mail address is also already used!
What is the next step? Should we generate 20 more e-mail accounts somewhere and register 20 more phone numbers in an attempt to open one Steemit account?
We tried to open accounts from Nigeria, The Netherlands and Hungary.

Thank you for your answer.
I just tried steemworld.org and it worked.
I will see what the link you gave leads me to.
@rashid001 did you try this?

No, I haven't tried. Because currently, there's no need to create an account. But in my opinion, the method respected Steemchiller mentioned, the recovery account will show the same account from which the key was generated. And everyone will think that the new account created is yours.
Like my user name is shown as a recovery account in my wife's account details.

I recently noticed that a community (CCC) set me as a recovery account.
I wonder when that happened. Also I never had the keys except for a posting key.
If it comes to being the recovery account:
SC01 seems to be the recovery account for many accounts these days. Does this mean SC01 is farming?
I have more than one account and many old Steemians have that. I don't see any wrong in it, also not in helping others to start one.
Isn't that also what the SR from Indonesia do if they help opening accounts or does the issue never occur in Bangladesh and Indonesia?
I already had it as I opened my account.
Only the second with Partiko went without issues (I believe there's a 3rd one .leo I never used 🤔).
Setting a new recovery is also an endless story or is it impossible?
@steemchiller do you have some answers?

The creator of an account automatically will be set as the recovery account, but this doesn't mean the new account is owned by the creator. That would mean sc01 and justyy own thousands of accounts, which is not true, of course. The recovery account does not necessarily have the private keys for the accounts he created. For recovering an account, the recovery account does not need to know the keys of the account to be recovered.
No, as I explained above, sc01 just was the creator of the account (passively), which is the case when creating a new account via steemit.com nowadays. I guess the logic was changed to use sc01 instead of "steem" to easen the process of recovering an account without having access to the private active key of "steem".
Yes, there is nothing wrong with owning multiple accounts. Almost all witnesses have multiple accounts too. It sometimes also makes sense for security reasons to manage assets for a specific service in a different account.
It is possible, but it should only be done if the owner of the account knows what he is doing. For example, you should not set sc01 as recovery account for an account you yourself created, because the account recovery feature on steemit.com will not work/allow recovering an unknown account in most cases.

Thank you for explaining. I just noticed my RC is low (wondered why) but next saw I have 2 more tickets so I can help some today.
I asked about the recovery because my other account still had partiko set for recovery and it took very long to change it (I asked help). I just noticed it's steem now.
A great day to you.

A bit off-topic, but I’d love to see a post offering guidance on joining clubs - what they are and their benefits. It feels like not being part of one can be a real barrier when it comes to entering contests.

But why is it a barrier? Which contests are you talking about? Because the one supported by the team do not require any prerequisites now. The rules have been relaxed.

It's especially challenging for new users trying to grow their accounts from scratch by joining contests, but some of these require club status. I couldn’t find much information about this, so I really appreciate the links you shared—now I understand it's about powering up your earnings. I'm just a bit disappointed since I can't join the contests I was interested in.

You can always join!
No one can forbid you to do so. If many join the chance to win is small but curators upvote all posts or at least should upvote.

Here are the topics thusfar. Strangely enough a part of the updates seem to disappear. I edited/added several topics by now 3 times.
The clubs is written about. If it benefits is up to you.

Thanks a ton for sharing the link, very informative. I'd love to upvote your comments but I don't have enough sp😅(I’ll have to work on that) I've read your post about growth as well as the comments and it’s reassuring to know that there are people here who values quality content and profound engagements. Honestly, at first, I thought all I needed to do was post all the time. But when I took the time to really read through the comments, I realized they were just as enlightening as the post itself.
While many of us are here to monetize our content (myself included), I’ve realized that holding tightly on that mindset—it makes things stressful for me and drives away my muse. It’s better to just do my thing and enter contests that I think adds value in this platform.

If you want to, you can also create accounts for your friends on your own with https://steemworld.org/account-creator. I think you already have enough RC (Resource Credits) available to claim new accounts. Your RC recharge automatically over time like the VP, so it's basically free to create accounts with it ;)

I will see if I can figure out how to do that. Arenew email adresses amd account names needed?

It works without email address. Your friend can create his own keys with https://steemworld.org/key-generator and export the required data to create the account from via the "Export Public Keys" button. He first needs to check if that accounts exists already, of course. The exported file will only contain the account name and public keys, so your friend needs to make a copy of his password and/or private keys by himself.
He then sends that file to you and you just import it here:
After the account name and public keys have been imported, you just click on "Create Account". You first need to claim at least one Account Ticket in the section above, of course. This will allow you to create accounts for other people without even knowing their master password or private keys.

I guess I will hit some buttons to try it out first before I mess up more. 😐
I assume via steemworld.org it can be figured out if an account name exists?

Yes, just try it out once on your own and create a test account or so. The Account Creator tool will tell you if the account exists when entering the name there. I probably could improve this and add this functionality also in the Key Generator tool. Will think about it...

Can it be you see the settings if you click on the "avatar" (nothing there yet) or use the wallet? A different browser might show more as well. I remember I had the same as I opened a community. It was a bit up and down clicking.
Perhaps wallet and from the wallet back to blog something like that. 🤔

Same happens with most of the newbies. Signing up for a new account on Steemit is like trying to fit a camel into a rickshaw. :-)
I mean it's so annoying that a new user can't even create an account. I've invited many friends to join Steemit, but they've failed at the account creation process.
Even I wanted to create an account for my wife, but it wasn't happening. Then, I paid 3 Steem from my wallet to claim an account. Now, I can't claim an account for anyone else from my wallet. Because it's considered account farming.

@steemchiller just explained it can be done via https://steemworld.org/key-generator
No need for an email address
I just gave it a try. I had 2 (?) tickets and although I thought I had the account it turned out not to exist.
I gave it a second try and it worked (no tickets left and no idea how many years it will take to receive the next ticket 🤔.).

Looks like you only claimed one Account Ticket, so it all worked as expected. I guess you can already claim a few more. You can always see how many Resource Credits you have left here:

No, it says 0 left but the account is made.

Yes, you paid to create the account with the Account Ticket that you claimed before. So, you can click the "Claim Account" button to claim more Account Tickets that you can then use at any time to create accounts from them. As soon as you actually create an account, the number of your available (earlier claimed) Tickets will be reduced by 1, of course.
I myself claim the Tickets regularly for quite some time already (even if I don't create many accounts with it currently), so I have now:

It is the same here. Error after error though the phone number works. Let's see if someone can find the solution.

@wakeupkitty..
Can you please guide me..
I have only Posting key left..
Due to my mobile stolen..
My all other keys are lost..
How can I recover my Existing account while I have only Private Posting key left .
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

You can't.
If you want to save only 1 key it should be your owner key. You did not save your keys elsewhere? Stolen or broken phone you would have lost them.
Did you never use an other device? Never sent the keys to yourself by email? Did your phone make backups, perhaps to a cloud?
With only a posting key you can't do much. How did you save that one?
How about the public keys do you have them? They are the extra set of keys generated by steemworld.org.
You have @steemcurator01 set to recover your account but there's nothing to recover without keys.
I noticed you were inactive for 2 years. It's a pity of your SP but starting new is the only solution. Perhaps you can refer to the old account and copy your introduction post if you feel that is necessary.
