After thinking a little deeper, we realized it definitely was a hard sell. So we redid the landing page and we're now offering a 7-day free trial (credit card required) before we start charging. About the number issue, I've put in my cofounder's number as a failsafe in case we have an odd number of users.
Yeah, that description is a little misleading (we just redid our landing page yesterday and completely forgot to update this showHN). And about the service, we're glad you think so! However, could you clarify what you mean by locale? Do you mean the countries we currently support?
Yeah, I agree that the harassment issue could definitely be annoying to deal with. However, we introduced the monthly subscription to weed out these kind of people before they join and it's working quite well so far. We haven't had any complaints of spamming and people are liking the person-to-person connection a lot - in fact, we just found out yesterday that two of our users started texting regularly after meeting each other on 9:22.
