Accounts alone won't do it. Accounts and invites might? But then someone who doesn't know anyone on the site needs to figure out how to contact someone who's a member. It's not good for growth, but some websites are fine with that. |

If I'm in the picky group, and we send out 5 invites total, but the unpicky group sends out 10, then 2/3 of the invites are unpicky - if the groups are the same size, which they probably won't be for a while (I'm probably inviting people who are almost as picky as I am)
There's also someone on the team who thinks we'd grow faster if we simplified the onboarding process, which is true but also means when we piss off some user they can create a bunch of accounts while they're still spun up and cause a bunch of overhead for the support team and the developers. That gets expensive too.
