What this gate checks

The account must show signs of being a real person: profile bio, posting history, account age, and engagement patterns.

Under the hood: Composite score from account creation date, tweet frequency, profile completeness (bio, location, banner), follower-to-following ratio, and historical engagement consistency. Threshold tuned to filter bots and brand-new throwaway accounts.

Common failure reasons

  • Account less than 30 days old
  • No bio or default profile image
  • Zero or near-zero historical posting activity
  • Suspicious follower/following ratio

How to pass this gate

Use a real X account that you actually use. Add a bio, post regularly, engage with your community. This gate is impossible to game with throwaway accounts.
