I saw that this instance had a large number of users so I thought “more users->more content->more fun”. Apparently, I had to prove my value by answering 3 questions that showed my interest in their community and my value as a potential future member.
What could possibly be my value to a general purpose instance besides money? I’m a software/cloud engineer so I guess there are things I could help with, but my guess is they were expecting me to say “I can donate”.
I get it, they need donations to exist, but this upfront? And to a community I don’t even know? Maybe I’m imagining things and they were looking for something else?
Do all instances rely on donations? I’d like to contribute to the instances I enjoy at some point. But only if I feel at home with them, not as a prerequisite to join.
I don’t think this is about donations. Did you try registering again with more information about why you want to join?
Like, is this really how they are filtering users? Do they know what chatgpt is? Because I could literally copy their rules and philosophy and generate 1000 outputs for bot accounts if I was evil.
I really don’t feel like cheating anyone with Chatgpt and I also don’t feel like writing an essay explaining my worth. I’ll just wait until they relax the interview process.
You keep saying this but maybe you should have just done it lmao seems like you’re just here crying, seems to me their filtering system is working
I’m just answering to the people who replied to my post, is that wrong? And no, I won’t use tools to bypass security measures. I’m just pointing out an obvious flaw in their filter.
