Sign up strategy is one of the most difficult things to do. Before someone signs up like JSK mentioned the user needs to see a value in wanting to sign up.
For http://begfor.it the user that want's an item will sign up and become a user of the site. The person the user tries to recruit to vote for them will only sign up if they have a strong loyalty to that person. This is why we're adding in FB and Twitter logins. This will make it much easier for beggars to get friends in to vote for them since most of them have an account with FB or twitter.
The process to sign up has to be dead simple and we keep refining, testing and refining. It's a fine balance between locking out and letting in. We couldn't have voting wide open with no verification because it would leave it wide open for fraud and unfair play.
