Re:Stellar by gdb on Thursday July 31, 2014 @03:17PM (#8116338)
Yep, for sure. The goal is to get stellars into the hands of as many people as possible, and so moving beyond just FB is definitely a priority. (If you want, I'd be happy to send you a few stellar to play with in the meanwhile.)
Re:Stellar by borec on Thursday July 31, 2014 @03:39PM (#8116475)
I absolutely hate Facebook but I have a Facebook account which I never use (mostly used to look up people). I tried to use this account during the Stellar registration process and I am getting "Facebook account is too new to qualify". Can you please help?
Re:Stellar by gdb on Thursday July 31, 2014 @04:56PM (#8116949)
Oof, that's annoying. We probably can't tell the age on your account. If you send me your stellar username, I'll send some stellars over.

Aren't fb user IDs assigned as increasing numbers? You could probably just decide on a cut-off user ID and treat all lower numbers as "older".
Re:Stellar by ahupp on Thursday July 31, 2014 @07:55PM (#8117686)
They are increasing within any one user database, but there are many of these databases. So useridA < useridB only implies B is newer than A if dbid(useridA) == dbid(useridB).

I've got the same problem as some other users here, my FB account was flagged as spam -- not that surprising since I don't use it, but it's annoying.
Re:Stellar by gwynp on Thursday July 31, 2014 @04:52PM (#8116926)
same problem here. I hope they provide other methods for doing this soon.
Re:Stellar by ryan-c on Thursday July 31, 2014 @09:33PM (#8118000)
Well, since everyone else is asking, my username is ryanc, and I don't have a Facebook account.
Re:Stellar by tripzilch on Friday August 01, 2014 @08:56AM (#8119534)
That'd be great, I don't have FB. My username is tripzilch, the same as on HN.
Re:Stellar by ingenieroariel on Thursday July 31, 2014 @04:28PM (#8116795)
Can I also get some stellar? Same username here and there. Thanks in advance.
Re:Stellar by gdb on Thursday July 31, 2014 @04:56PM (#8116952)
Yep, some should be on their way shortly.
Re:Stellar by guy_c on Monday August 11, 2014 @07:12AM (#8162798)
Appreciate having some stellar for my account too - 'guyc'
Re:Stellar by simonebrunozzi on Friday August 01, 2014 @01:05AM (#8118442)
How can I, instead, get in touch with you directly? simone.brunozzi then the weird character then gmail.
Re:Stellar by yogo on Friday August 01, 2014 @08:31AM (#8119433)
Same username as HN, no Facebook account.
Re:Stellar by ingenieroariel on Friday August 01, 2014 @12:42AM (#8118405)
Got them, thanks!
Re:Stellar by byproxy on Thursday July 31, 2014 @09:49PM (#8118033)
"ochoa" wouldn't mind some stellar sans Facebook account.
Re:Stellar by spacefight on Thursday July 31, 2014 @03:50PM (#8116544)
Thanks - same username as on HN.
Re:Stellar by gdb on Thursday July 31, 2014 @03:59PM (#8116614)
Shazam! You have stellars.
Re:Stellar by wqfeng on Friday August 01, 2014 @02:20AM (#8118593)
My user name is catalyst. Thanks.

I don't have a Facebook account, and register one detected as spam.

Re:Stellar by budgi3 on Friday August 01, 2014 @03:00AM (#8118669)
Shutdown my facebook a/c a few months back. Could you send to me directly please? Same username as HN
Re:Stellar by maaku on Thursday July 31, 2014 @10:31PM (#8118139)
I'm in the same boat -- same username as HN, but facebook login isn't working.
Re:Stellar by spacefight on Thursday July 31, 2014 @04:14PM (#8116707)
Thanks. Just out of curiosity, how did you get your Stellars?
Re:Stellar by gdb on Thursday July 31, 2014 @04:53PM (#8116930)
The same way as everyone else — OAuth'd with Facebook :).
Re:Stellar by jhall on Thursday July 31, 2014 @07:42PM (#8117638)
Unfortunately, I don't have a FB account either. It isn't clear that one is required at signup. Any chance of at least a partial allotment? Username is joninasheville. Thanks.
Re:Stellar by patrickk on Thursday July 31, 2014 @05:34PM (#8117132)
Would appreciate some also. The connect with Facebook button on the Stellar dashboard isn't working. Username is keanemachine ;)
Re:Stellar by noso on Thursday July 31, 2014 @07:09PM (#8117529)
ME too I have same problem with the facebook button. Same username as this one i.e. noso.
Re:Stellar by pskl on Saturday August 02, 2014 @03:38AM (#8124336)

Re:Stellar by Zhenya on Thursday July 31, 2014 @07:18PM (#8117553)
