Upon signing up I immediately received several email notifications for default occurrences (a friend request from the creator, a private message from the creator, invitation to a group) - this isn't a great user experience, most people don't like getting email notifications en mass like this, especially for a thing they just signed up for to try out. Also when I went to settings to try to turn off email notifications, all but one set of the radio buttons to toggle them were missing. As a poet I would love to see a non-spammy poetry based social site take off. Best of luck getting there.
