I wouldn't say it's that exclusive.

Over the span of time I've had the account, i've recieved about 30 invites, and I've given all of them out. Now I've got 50 at this present time, many of the people I've given invites to have 50. I think they're trying to expand, and the best way to expand is through word of mouth.

I think it's a good marketing strategy, make it seem exclusive and more will want to join up.
