            Not as of today. I may eventually allow "registering" via oauth providers (such as Google, Facebook, github etc).

            Yikes! Send me their id and a screenshot of messages and I'll see what I can do.<br>
            I wish this didn't need to be said but if someone posts a link YOU PROBABLY SHOULD NOT CLICK ON IT.<br>
            *puts hands over sides of LCD monitor* UNLESS YOU TRUST THE WEBSITE DO NOT VISIT ANY SITE A USER SENDS YOU.<br>
            <h1>By using this site you agree to hold me, and anyone who works on, or related to, this project, harmless
                (ie not responsible for any damage to life or property).</h1><br>
            If you do go to a site a user messages you and you install a virus YOU AGREE THAT IT IS YOUR OWN FAULT.
            You should know to not go to sites random people send you AND DON'T OPEN EMAIL ATTACHMENTS YOU AREN'T EXPECTING.
            <br>
            IF SOMEONE ASKS TO MEET OFFLINE USE YOUR COMMON SENSE AND GUT FEELINGS. DON'T MEET IN A DARK ALLEY. MEET
            AT A PUBLIC PLACE WITH LOTS OF PEOPLE SUCH AS A CROWDED AND WEL LIT RESTAURANT.
            <br>
            DO NOT REVEAL PERSONAL INFORMATION UNLESS YOU FEEL 110% COMFORTABLE WITH THE OTHER PERSON. A good start
            might be to give out your facebook or create a facebook that is designed for meeting random people.

           Sorry, I have to make that crystal clear.

            ForeverAlone is a random chat matching program that tries to match people based on similar interests
            rather than just some random person around the world. Read more about the project <a href="./main/about">here</a>.

        </div>
        <div class="panel-body">
            The only data I log is related to previous session connections. Before you get angry, this is due to people
            who would use this service for nefarious purposes. If you care about your privacy online and know someone
            who brags about or claims that they will do something illegal - you should probably convince them, via any means,
            them not to do it.
            Session data becomes stale after 20 seconds and is
            automatically purged. I think it would be interesting to collate data and provide a report via trend like
            <a href="http://oktrends.okcupid.com/">okcupid does</a>. (As a computer scientist I love me some analytical
            data that I can query and create graphs and charts out of!)

            Feel free to create pull requests, patches, or spin off your own fork for your organization, company, etc.
            One of the goals of ForeverAlone is to make the barrier as low as possible to run it - so it should run on
            any standard shared hosting service.

        </div>
        <div class="panel-body">
            I've been a huge fan of the original codeigniter due to it's simplicity of not requiring use of the framework.<br>
            As far as I can see no PHP framework today fills that niche. There are a number of micro frameworks but they
            didn't feel like they were what I was looking for. I believe in keeping things as simple as possible.<br>
            If you feel CakePHP/Symphony/etc is a better framework you are free to fork this code and use those frameworks
            instead. Otherwise, this will be my reply to anyone who criticizes the code "patches welcome".
