Nothing has made me want to join Twitter more than these recent events. An opportunity to drink the tears of narcissistic pricks who "fight for change" but now don't want change?

It's the same thing.

Someone used the phrase Musk-a-don for that other network, and I thought that was funny. But I am easily amused.
Why's that thing's hog come out of its shins?
Elon posting 25 times a day. And here I thought I was fingertyping happy.

It's pretty much my only Social Network I guess, unless you count Reddit or YouTube.
So now that we find out people were paying 15 grand to get their blue check marks, it makes perfect sense why they're so pissed that anyone can buy it for 8 bucks now.
Or on a flipside, would LV bag worth as much if I can get it for 1/1000 th of the cost?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
One influencer said after this change, the blue check means nothing and he won't bother. He will just check relevancy by number of followers.
It's nothing like the prestige of 11 green bars!
For those of us who don't Twit, what is the checkmark? I assumed it was just verification of who they were.

I don’t think anyone is paying 15k for a checkmark. The “evidence” was basically a scammer level conversation. It was a nice distraction to justify the paid product tho haha.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Blue check mark used to have a higher bar: "active, notable, and authentic". It's need more than a Wikipedia page about you to get verified and it's a hassle to get so public figures are harder to fake.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Now it's just $8/month with 0 verification.
"Accounts that receive the blue checkmark as part of a Twitter Blue subscription will not undergo review to confirm that they meet the active, notable and authentic criteria that was used in the previous process."
So something that used to mean something and cost nothing turned into something that means nothing that cost $8/mth.
Hence everyone was clowning on Musk on Sunday changing their name of their verified accounts to mimic the effect of this new plan and Musk came out with the ban hammer.
But unless Musk is trolling... at least he sounds reasonable today and his just wrapped Q&A seems to be trying to calm the advertisers.
