I must be really dense. When I first signed up for Steemit I thought it was just another Social Networking site! That's the way it was listed on the page where I read about it.
Silly me.
I have a few questions because suddenly I am feeling very uncomfortable about the whole thing. Maybe I'm overly cautious.
I read that you can not delete your account? Is this true?
Do you have to buy anything on Steemit? Do you have to purchase Steem? I really don't want to do that.
I still can NOT figure out all these "keys" . I've read several articles on them. Watched a few YouTubes...but I still do not get it. I have no idea if the loooong numbers/letters code I was given by Steemit when I first signed on is my master password? I read that you have to keep your passwords off the internet but how is that possible when you have to use them on the internet?
At the moment all I feel is confused and stressed out that I may have gotten into something over my head.
I think I MIGHT feel better about it if there was a clear, concise instruction somewhere on the keys/passwords. Maybe there is but I can not find it.
I can't figure out which "keys" to print out. I read that you should print them out and put them in a safe? I don't even own a safe. Don't have a safety deposit box at a bank either. I do have an old tin can and a shovel I suppose I could bury it in the back yard.
Which "keys"are you supposed to use to log on? Isn't it the one that I was given by Steemit? That's what I am using. I don't know what other key to use or where to get it.
I have no idea.
Lost. I am just lost. Lost and feeling frustrated.
If there was a visible "delete account" button I'd probably click it at this point but I saw that if you want to terminate your account you have to provide verification thru a credit card? I don't even have a credit card.
I have a feeling that I am not the only one feeling like this.
Oy vey...what did I do?
(decided Steemit is not for me wont be back)
