Where Are You?

[Keyav8r]

Maybe this should be in The Pub section, but why doesn't everybody have their location shown below their name and avatar (or, in my case, their lack of an avatar)?

It's not like the location is critical personal information and it would cut out people having to ask where the poster is located.

My pet peeve for the day!

Almost feel like this is directed at me! :P I guess I never remembered to fill it in.

Yes Keyav8r, this is Pub material, and I agree 100% with you. It also frosts me when people ask technical questions about their rig and don't edit their signature detailing what year, model, engine, etc. they have. I don't even reply to that stuff because I don't like guessing. .

[jimoshel]

Mine too. Many a time I've seen a request for something and I wouldn't answer it because I didn't know their location.

[mnkyboy]

We have discussed this before in the past.

 

I bugs me too. Really its dumb not to, if you need help or parts or whatever usually a local member is willing to help you out. This club is a much more useful resource if people know where you are.

 

There has been a few times ive given or loaned parts to local members or offered use of my shop to help them out. In fact at least once a year sometimes more we open our shop to local members free of charge to use the lift and other equipment to help with thier rigs.

My guess is that most of the folks who don't have their location visible have simply forgotten to fill out their profile. On the other hand, I am sure there are a few paranoid folks who simply refuse to fill it out.

No city can be that bad. I live in a college town(UVA) yet graduated from Virginia Tech and this is still a nice place to live

No profile info is displayed when using the mobile version, can this be changed?

how many times have you gone to court with your city over stupid stuff?

I like the idea of showing the persons location. Also i have been on other jeep related forums where each area broken down (southwest / California / northern ca) . I have noticed its great when trying to plan trips, events, and meet people you can talk to face to face.  :cheers:

[Dadinator]

I don't mind putting mine.  Most people wouldn't be able to find it anyway.

:laughin:

Zero times. That would make me reconsider things.

Not pointed at you in particular, Alex. Hadn't noticed yours was missing. Doesn't matter because you're an admin and we all know admins have magical powers. Like making multiple posts disappear.
