location
Is there a way to make "Location" in the profile a mandatory fill-in?
It would be nice if one knew where everyone lived. For example, sometimes
the weather is mentioned and we would like to know WHERE that is. Or
someone had a nice ride and mentions points of interest: OK, where
is that? Or someone makes a suggestion for a rally, OK where do THEY live?
Filling in a state or even a region would put things more in focus for everyone.

Re: location
I can see where someone would fill in their actual home address for "location,"
so my suggestion is to change the label from "location" to "state" so it wouldn't
be much of a privacy issue. No big deal, it's just a suggestion.

Re: location
I didn't see any way to do it. Maybe I just wasn't finding it. This version of the board seems as though it's missing some stuff that used to be there but they probably just rearranged it.

You mean like make that field of location mandatory? So like if someone doesn't want people to know where they are or their location they can just make something up anyway?

Re: location
Ummm, ...We're talking about changing location to state or region, and using forum pseudonyms.

Re: location
Either way, it's not much of a "privacy issue," is it? It was just a suggestion, if no one thinks it worthy, Oh WELL!MadCow wrote:And folks can still put some false info in.NE_FL wrote: Ummm, ...We're talking about changing location to state or region, and using forum pseudonyms.
