Location

[Ericfox]

I think it should be necessary to list your city, state under your name... would be very helpful for 3 reasons....

1) if someone has a problem we can know who is close that might be able to help them

2) if selling something there wont be 100 people asking for location

3) My favorite: trying to find local people to ride with.... I use the advanced search to find people by city and state and then PM them with an invite to ride sometime....

:biggrin:

I just called and there was no answer!! you guys must be busy... I'll call back later....

I think it would be most beneficial for newbies and people that dont get on here and post very often... and those are the people that most frequently have nothing there...

How do you enforce it?

 

[Big Kahuna]

ban anybody that does not post the info!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Ericfox]

maybe just make it a box that makes you fill it out when joining? At least they will have to put something in... even if it's "your moms house" hehe

or perhaps you can make is some kind of special request for people to change their profiles the first time they come back to the site?

I dont know that much about how to make forums... I just thought it would be a good suggestion for the box...

it is helpful when people are selling things !

But like jett said, how do you inforce..
And some might not want their addy out there !

 

[Ericfox]

well you dont have to put your street address.... just city and state... that would not be that bad would it?

How do you enforce it?

Find yourself a location nazi and instruct hi8m to take no mercy. Hey, I found one for you:

 

[Ericfox]

lol

 

[Ericfox]

hey... this was just a suggestion... stop razzin me you guys!

 

[Snackem]

I say at least a state should be on there.

 

[SuperJETT]

hey... this was just a suggestion... stop razzin me you guys!

You know, your location does not follow our location guidelines, just a city, state, nothing more, nothing less. No exclamation points, arrows, etc.

It's a nice suggestion, but un-enforceable really plus to me feels like micro-managing things. Some people would rather not have their location listed at all.

 

[Ericfox]

ok... just figured it would be nice for sellin stuff and to find fellow local riders... never mind then...

 

[PancakePete]

Zima on the rocks ! LMFAO !

 

[Ericfox]

last time I give an f'ing suggestion... christ... should have known better on this site...

 

[Big Kahuna]

oh bejeez, your getting rattled over like 4 replys.......... hate to see what happens whey you really stir up a stink!!!!!!!!

 

[Ericfox]

I have before... no biggy.... just figured the frickin suggestion section might be reserved for good discussion... guess I have never looked through this section too much before...

I have no problem with funny antics people throw around in the other sections... I do it too... but I doubt I would try to poke fun when someone is trying to make a suggestion for what he/she thinks would be beneficial to our site here (in the suggestion section)... I guess I thought it was funny at first, but then it kinda pissed me off... I thought it was a good suggestion...

Maybe I just need a beer... its been a long week...
