RE: Steem is about to get a LOT better.
I’d make it $100 worth of STEEM. You wanna start a community? Show some dedication. If it’s too much then write a nice post explaining why you wanna do a community and request some funds from the dao. Of course, burn all STEEM used to create Communities and SMT’s. Is that not what is happening?

I'm not sure what happens to the 3 Steem you spend to create the Community, but I assume it gets burned.
Hmm, I think I'm in favor of it being pretty cheap. Steem is a global community. I live in the US and $100 is something I could afford no problem, but in other parts of the world that's a LOT of money. Those people could ask the community for help and maybe that would work, but the truth is, I don't personally care about most peoples random communities and I imagine most Steemians wouldn't either. I think the real value add will be getting LOTS of people on the platform and all those people will need RC's to transact. If some random community that I don't care about manages to onboard 10k users that all are doing their own thing that doesn't interest me, it's still good for all of us. I think we should make these first steps as frictionless as possible because once they're here, we can monetize them.
Yeah, I haven’t thought of the RC impact. I’ll have to see it in action. In other words, when I can lease my RC’s out for gain (I never use them much), I’ll get excited about it.

I agree that 100$ (>500 Steem) would be quite a hurdle, think of small communities like insect keepers or maybe residents of a specific town or area.
The more small communities we attract, the better.
But they’ll just create the community to squat on it and then leave

This is a common feature of all social media. Also facebook has millions of ghost accounts.
I think the behind the hood name of the community will be a random string, so more than one user could make a community about a specific genre.
