Okay. If having the last word makes you feel better I'll allow it.

For reasonable people reading this I'd like to stress that:

If you're a previous customer you'll be moved over to a different service with a different name, and you'll be getting an updated image.

I know everybody wants to be "verified", but we are making the verification process a little more strict. I dream of it being a system that helps celebrities and other popular community members stand out and make it harder for them to be impersonated.

Like most traditional social media platforms.

Old customers will be moved over to our new service called "Steem Badges" which lets you anonymously prove that you're a human. It's not the same thing as "verification" though so please don't mix these two things up.

More info on that soon.

I know this is messy. At times I regret building onto Steem Verify and wish I would've just launched a new service with a new name. Too late for that now though. Either accept these changes or don't. It doesn't matter.
