This could be a great site. It may have at one time been a great site.
They boast many numbers of members.
HOWEVER very few are on the site and 99.9% are jerks and hang in there year after year with thousands of posts of BS.
It is my belief that people join and get mistreated, used and abused so they leave and the site owns their email and member name and number as a way to sell their info to advertisers. What do you think?
If anyone questions their tactics they "ban" them.
The member can not access their messages.
Also the site owns any rights to any pics that have been posted. Beward posting your pics as they may pop up anywheres with your name on it and you will not get the royalties AND people will see your name and still be able to acess the member info and locate you!
Beware of joining.
Beware if you post pics.
Beeare if you want to quit.
Make sure you use a throw away email address dedicated just to that site.
Make sure you have edited any part of your account before contacting management for assistance.
They may throw you out before you are able to assure yourself of any security.
Remember they own the site, they own any pics posted, they own your avatar, they own your posts to do with as they see fit.
So go ahead and join their site but watch what happens. Goldenfeathers, platinum feathers, etc. they will welcome you. Then will be the others. A small band of people clinging to their membership pumping for info from you. Fake friendliness. Waiting to trash you and look at their numbers. Thousands of posts as they pump the new person for info. The membership numbers are very high BUT the amount of particpaters is very low. Those participaters chase away the good people.

Tip for consumers:
Dont do it.
