Member's location field

[bowman]

We have seen a lot of questions going back to users requests for assistance, items for sale, etc., where a lot of questions center around 'Where are you'. We have set this as a required field for new join requests.

I would like for each member to take an extra minute to update their profile with their location by doing the following:

1. Click your name in the menu bar, then Account Details.
2. Scroll down until you see the 'Location' field
3. Fill in your city name
4. Click 'Save' at the bottom of the screen.

This is done for the convenience of our members. You will be able to see a member's location by clicking on their name.

Thank you for your cooperation.

This field is not to be confused with the address needed for DQ and Corporate Member requirements.

It took me a minute to figure out where it got displayed. For the slow ones like me, it's at the end of the 3rd line:
