I don't think this message is really horrible. The fact that they suspend your account is kind of weird, but IMO, you shouldn't be using G+ as your "home" on the web. I don't think it's meant to be that way. I've been using it since beta, and I've found that joining relevant communities and following certain people makes it an awesome mix of reddit (sans-comments) and twitter. My home feed has all the stuff I want to see from G+, and I will look into new communities once every few months.
I would never send anyone to my G+ profile. There's nothing really on it. I don't use it as if it were Facebook and load my history with vapid statements or "inspirational" quotes.
I think now, more than ever, it's easy to get your own "destination" site up and running with minimal effort. The social stuff? It's just a way to kill time. It shouldn't be everything.
Exactly, G+ Twitter, FB are content exchanges with value added in form of comments and discovery in my opinion, not content creation places. P.s. Google returns 404 on his G+ profile, is it correct http code? Shouldn't it be something from 5 while case is being resolved at least?

I'm not on the google+ hate train.

Just cross off everything after 'G+'...
I'm not sure why you'd say that. G+ has some valuable communities. It's no different than coming to this site or going to reddit, twitter, tumblr etc.
