Being a new user, I was out of credits after 1 thread, 4 comments and 4 follows. I've waited two days and only enough regenerated to make this comment. Now I'll have to wait 5 days to be at 100. This is not a good way to keep new users.
Pay to play will almost always turn the masses away.
Also, thank you @khaleelkazi for gifting me your premium subscription, but feel it's wasted on me, since I can only interact once a week and even then it will be severely limited. #feedback
hi @findingfreedom, i have delegated 15 hive to your account. This should help to comment and post.
Thank you very much, that is quite kind of you.
Why HP, when all is needed is RC delegation.
Old habit i guess. I realised it after i did delegated HP. :-)
I will delegate you resource credits to use the platform.
Give me a little bit and I will get it to you shortly.
You should be able to go a lot further now.
Thank you very much, that's kind of you. I've been looking around a bit during my reprieve and see that there's a pretty big marketing push to bring in new users and the ability to gift things like premium and delegate not only the token, but RC's.
Maybe an initiative could be set up to delegate new users RC's that start off posting something relevant and personal, showing they aren't a bot or something? Maybe asking users to delegate/donate RC's to a community account that is specifically for new users in the hopes it will improve retention?
Maybe explaining this during the sign up process could help newbies understand the limits and how to be seen, so they can earn such a delegation?
Welcome to the premium club and hopefully you have enough RC delegated to be active on threads.
Thank you and it looks like I do now. I'll be sure not to let it go to waste
I was wondering how many actions a new user has.

@khaleelkazi leopool could stake 200 HIVE and delegate RC to new users so they do not run into problems.
it’s not pay to play. It’s a way to ensure that people don’t spam the network with bots. We are all eager to delegate RC so you can make as many transactions as you want without paying a dime. If anyone needs RC feel free to ask me
I hope @khaleelkazi and other front ends can figure out a way to automatically delegate enough RC upon signup for a few dozen comments a day so people don’t run into this problem.
They are doing their best to constantly improve this place, stick around and you’ll see!
I'm not complaining, but am a bit surprised that it is what it is, yet so many seem to wonder why there's a problem with retention. That being said, it's both your explanation and mine and maybe even more than that as well.
I did offer a solution that doesn't affect the economy negatively and maybe I'll step up and take the 1st steps towards making it happen. It's nice to meet you
Delegated you RC, hope it helps.
Well, thank you very much kind sir.
