Brutha,
In my response, I meant to concede the technical side of the argument to you guys. You win! I'm not trying to represent the site as something it's not. It's a work in progress. It is however set up with unbelievably great intentions, and it's helping a lot of people - even if their navigation is clunky, their captchas aren't up to par, and they are asking for real names.
As for the "long term use" contract that is being referred to, that is a "commitment contract." It's not binding, and has nothing to do with you and the website. It's meant to be between you and you! It's similar to writing your goals or intentions down. If you look at it, all it says is "Hey, I, Sentient, promise to do the work and do what I need to in order to realize my goals." Nothing more than that! It's no more binding than when you write out your To Do list in the morning.
I just wanted to share something that has been really helpful to me and I thougth would help a lot of other people! I didn't want to push anything on anyone, nor was I holding this up as a technological marvel or a masterpiece in site design. It has good content that has helped a lot of people, that's all. You'll need to give them the benefit of the doubt and try it for a while though. If you still don't like it, try to help them improve it or just forget about it and move on.
