Hi. The site just launched. So far it seems our members seem to like Zimmerman. It's out of our hands as to who people want to rep, as that should be up to the community.

In other words, people don't have to be real on your site? Did George Zimmerman actually sign up?

It may help the reputation of the site itself to have a real user base. I know it's slow going in the beginning when you get out there - but I simply don't understand this.

I cannot verify if Zimmerman is real. If famous people sign up and would like their accounts verified, they can contact us. It's a similar dilemma Twitter has.
