Wow, thank you for a great feedback! Much appreciated!
1. Hmm I need to consider using username name instead of full name in "newest members" section. I have some doubts about it. Why do you think it's not cool though? At very least I might just add it to user settings page per your suggestion. I just realized that another option would be to have first name and the first letter of the last name.
2. Missing skills - since I just launched it, it's possible that some are missing, therefore I have this feedback tab so users can request them to be added. As far as climbing - I do have hiking, alpinism and mountaineering. I'll probably add rock climbing as a related to mountaineering skill as I've noticed people have been searching it.
3. Unable to request a new skill until you register. Yes, I made it so only registered users can submit feedback and request skills to add so there is less spam. I hear you though, I thought about it already. Also, you can request to add as many skills as you like (once you're registered). In order to register you only need one skill, the other ones you can add later from your profile. I'll figure something out to make sure that unregistered users can request a new skill.
4. Yes, ability to remove (or hide) a skill is in the plan and wasn't a part of Beta.
5. I force to add only 1 skill during sign up so it's simpler and faster to register. Obviously the profile has to have at least one skill. The other ones can be added from user profile later.
6. This is a good one too - tell the users how many people use it in specific area and stuff like that is also on my TO DO list, just not for Beta, especially when I don't have that many users yet. :(
7. Can you please elaborate a little bit more about your sharing suggestion? As of right now, there is a facebook share button on each profile that has a nicely written title and description already when shared.
Thanks again for a great feedback! Lots of things to think about.
