There wasn't any difficulty for me in getting a Starship account a bit more than a year ago. See? That proves my theory. :-) And how is that "a problem"? Are you worried about hordes of people descending on Starship? Guido was making a joke. I laughed. You should too.

Ah, that famous Dutch humor. It was clear that the line with the smiley was a joke, not so clear that "the problem" was a joke; I therefore responded seriously. And yes, I did make a point of laughing this time around.
