I appreciate that but I already posted it here and the response was mute. That aside, I'm keeping it quiet until I launch as I still want people to sign up so I can at least market to them when it goes live. Besides, I have already set a close date at the end of the month and I'd hate to sound disingenuous from the start.
Yeah and I'm ashamed I did it... It's just that I didn't want it to be affect by what I say online as a developer. I guess I'm uber paranoid that all this good fortune is going to run disappear because I posted something stupid.
I don't think you'd sound disingenuous by simply stating things as you've done here: You had no idea you'd get such a strong response and can't possibly handle that many testers at one time. Clearly, hundreds of beta testers mean that you'l have to spend hundreds of hours responding to their requests. You'll never get out of beta. It's better for everyone if you get a product they can use to them faster.
I don't think anyone will deny you the right to make a living based on the fact that you said something overly specific in the past.

It happens.
You have our attention now, though, so you should try it again.
Under a different user name? I checked out your three posts and none of them seemed to mention your site.

Well, the decision is yours, but we can hardly help you without context. Post the website, everyone else does so freely!
