I only asked this question for the purpose of creating an account so I could post a reply to another question I saw that I thought I had some helpful information about. I also saw another question asked about why there is no direct signup link for creating an account. I realize most people coming here are asking a question, but what if you're just trying to help someone else? To force us through these 4 extra steps on us to create an account because of a faulty assumption is a waste of time, and frankly somewhat insulting. How hard can it be to add a simple link to take people to a signup page? That's what most other websites do.
