Tonberry - I know it :) I'm really happy with how many people are on there already. nycindie - yes, absolutely. The default will be increased to 25, with an option for 125. Optimistically, you should see this along with a bunch of other UX tweaks + messaging by the week's end. Might be over...

Great to hear nerdpower :). km - you're right, the math behind that field is a bit off. Thanks for the heads up.

Ah, I should have included the link / access code. I've updated the post.

Friendships, Search, and Privacy Alright! The most recent update (access code = rpoly if you aren't registered) has just been migrated. You'll notice the following changes: The 'People' link in the main menu is now active You can search for users based on various criteria, or just browse...

I don't think you should stop yourself from being who you are on account of someone else's discomfort. Your polyamory makes him as uncomfortable as his monogamy makes you. Empathy's a bitch when it comes to making these decisions, but I think it's healthier for two people to be themselves...

Okay, I'll make the text gray in this next update and see how that feels. Due to how long other features and testing have taken, I'm going to push the editable field titles into the next milestone. If all goes as planned, you should have much more to play with in under 24 hours. Updates to...

Thanks for all the feedback SC :). I talked to an attorney and it turns out that a service mark might be a better route. Since I plan to open source this, I won't have any products to sell. Regarding the info sections - you know, I'm thinking about letting users make their own fields. I...

Cool. Mono, I should clarify, in the context of intimate relationships, I'm beginning to think that jealousy had no place up until recently, that once agriculture kicked in, a shortage of intimacy was introduced, leading to the jealousy that serves as a background noise to so many relationships...

Jealousy as a social construct This question has hosted a wrestling match between me and my mind for some time now. When I first ventured into polyamory (without knowing that there was a word for it), I felt pangs of emotional discomfort whenever one of my partners spent time with another...

Great idea. Let me think about how to work that in... I'm trying to avoid having a bunch of input fields so your idea of a prompt within the Looking For field sounds nice. I'll work this into the next update; it's going to be a big one :).

Hey Tonberry, thanks for the feedback. The logo is not currently trademarked but I'm looking into my options there. I definitely don't want to restrict use (so you can get a tattoo or make a poster or anything); it would be more of a defensive measure on my part. As for the graph feature you...

*waves back* welcome, from a new guy :)

Update: Basic User Profiles Okay! You can go to www.beta.poly.fm and check out the basic user profile under My Profile, along with some other changes: User Profiles – basic user profiles with basic information. Click-to-edit input fields. You can see a sample public profile here...

Oh no, that has horrible implications. I mean the scene when he finally makes it out of the prison. Not the other parts.

Thanks SC - More granular privacy settings will be incorporated over time, and every aspect of your profile will be optional (except for your username and password).

Sure thing. "Friendships" will be rolled out in two or three updates, so this won't have an effect on anything quite yet. I'll make it an option though. Thanks for the suggestion.

Ah, I missed that one. And yes, "Everyone" means you don't need to register to see the profile content. I'm going to start with two sections for Privacy, with those options: 1) Your entire profile, with default "Friends Only" selected 2) Your basic information - Username / Age / Sex /...

Thanks SC :). Yes - groups and events have the option of being geographically relevant. You will be able to "browse locally" for both. Yes, I have no desire to use your information for anything, especially since there will be no advertisements. This next update will include the ability to...

Thanks AT :). Hopefully you'll see SSL up there soon.
