Thanks for pointing that out, The site basically allows you to post your unfinished projects. The other users can click on Participate to join your project. You as the project owner can decide if you want them to join or not. If you do, you can start having a conversation with them about the project. Will write an about page since many people are having issue understanding what the site is about |

I probably should have stated that more kindly. I love the idea and I love that you've brought it here for comment.
The "hell no" comment comes from experiencing the dark pattern of requiring an email before the user can determine if there's any value. This pattern has been abused time and again, and many people will just leave without learning what it's about before giving out an email for another marketing push. I did, and maybe all the upvoters of that comment also. Even if the privacy terms are "no mail ever", that doesn't mean the DB won't be hacked or stolen some day, or the company simply sold and the DB harvested. Who knows. It's been spoiled by everyone before.
My suggestion is open it up so people can read all the project details. Perhaps require a signup only if the user wants to contact a poster. And consider not using email at all.
