That's what I hear.

The reason I don't do it is that people have all this fun meeting "friends" and joining "clubs" and all that when in reality, it's just a site that helps people fill their own egos by allowing them to see the number of people they have connections with and be a part of a group or club that makes them special or helps them to fit in, when in reality, these people should find a better way to help their self-esteem like spending time with their real friends or finding a real club to dedicate time to. Its premise of helping old high school buddies to reunite is false because the reality is that about half of the students who graduate from high school don't have a college email address like is needed to access the site. So from that aspect, it's exclusionary.

Sorry for the rant, feel free to disagree...but that site really has very little to really offer in my opinion.
