I keep noticing this and wonder why ...
- A desire for privacy (like giving away the state or city you are in might jeopardize something)?
- Register in a hurry
- Just don't want to
I wonder most often when someone is looking for a car and you naturally want to see if you can help - hard when you don't even know what state they are in.

In my case it was because I never saw where to put it and since I saw nobody else had a location I thought it wasn't turned on in the forum. I just went hunting for it and now I know why I didn't put it in- it's on a page that starts with birthday, icq, im address, etc which I never fill out.

It would also help in picking sides if an east coast/west coast feud heats up

And while I'm venting on the subject of member info ...
let me just again state my disgust that Mark and I are still classified as "New Member," despite over 200 posts each and being members #18 and #20!
OK, got that off my chest.

ROFL at your last two posts Ralph. My 200+ posts have virtually no real 968 content in them anyway.

If you'd update your location then everyone would know you and Ralph were in the same state. <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

North Carolina seems well represented. Everyone in the Tar Heel state speak up and let us know where you are. This should aid us in scheduling events (which are pretty non-existant) in the Carolinas.
Sound off guys!!
