Mandatory insertion of City and State/Province for everyone that hasn't already done so. *-> this little star next to the profile section.
Just see so many newbie's with nothing there and some won't even respond to email when asked to check and change.
Am I being unreasonable? :oops: Should I be using a Nordic Track to relieve my frustations? :o
I remember a mass spread of things a while back that I think did the same thing but the trend continues.
Maybe there is another way of going about this is as hunting people is tiring 8)

What does everyone think about this one.

That somewhat is a rule. I got tired of enforcing it, because so many people were just ignoring it.

Thanks for trying to keep people straight. As far as I'm concerned, keep it up!

What about a daemon/bot/whatever, that sends emails and PMs to all those guys that have no valid location, threatening to shut down the account within a given time, and deleting it after that time?

The only sick person here, is the person who sold his Colt !! Booyyaahhh 8) :wink: but seriously more on topic, good to see that I'm not just doing something for nothing, or so it would seem.

I don't know if this is feasible, but what about a drop box for people to select their country? (And a text field so you can type in whatever city / state / province you want.) If you don't pick something from the drop box, it simply rejects your registration.

There would be a certain percentage of people who pick "Afghanistan" just because it's first on the list, but I can't imagine there would be too many... Since it takes all of two seconds to pick the right country instead...

I second Jay's motion for the box setup/denial thing if available to plug in.

*lifts cane into the air and proceeds to stand up from his walker chair* shouts "fight the power .... oh wait I'll sit down again, we are the power" :twisted:
