Reply to comment by KristinSaysGah in Twitter’s $20 verification charge, because you should pay Twitter to promote Twitter. by Core1989

How are they moaning? They're saying it makes no sense that they need to pay for verification, which they're right. The entire point of being verified is for the followers to know they're following a legit person. The celebrities, journalists, entertainers, etc are the commodity on twitter. They're the draw. Asking them to pay to promote your product when they're the draw of the product is hilarious.

Then they can go to another platform. Instead a bunch of millionaires are bitching about $20. It eliminates so much fake accounts and bot farms.

That's literally what Stephen King just said. LMAO.

I’m not saying that I agree with the new verification rule but when they write a tweet that says that Twitter should pay them to write a tweet, I’d file that under “moaning about paying a bill.”
