Due to the method of promotion, I assumed it was sinister, so didn't visit the site. If, as it appears, it is real and valid, good luck, but if you're listening, less with the spam please.

Actually, the person who you're referring to didn't "create" the site in the sense that you're thinking of. The site's created and hosted using the <a href="http://www.ning.com/" rel="nofollow">Ning</a> service, which lets anyone make their own social network. So, while the "creator" organizes everything regarding the site, it isn't actually coded or anything by him, and those downsides probably won't ever be fixed. Haha. Nevertheless, the site still looks promising. ;) “For anyone who can create a site like this, however, those sound like minor fixes.”
