User Support & Resources - Mods - Is there a way?

Is there a way to somehow streamline users/members into location? I know we have the Midwest, South, etc... forums, but mine covers like 10 states or something. We started something in our Knight Rider community, that I really think is quite neat.

Now, with a "50,000 +" memebers on this board, it would get a little cluttered. But perhaps some other site or way to use a map of the US to help organize some people. Or even something internal to browse members by state at least. I suspect a good percentage of the "registered members" have never posted and never even use their account. Like the very first few on the members list, have been "members" for 16 months with NO posts. Maybe you ween out those "dry" accounts. Just an idea. I'd really like to find local members that may not breeze into the Midwest forum. Thanks for reading.

not everyone puts in their location or other information reguarding that.

alot of people register and dont post, or dont post alot but read, etc.

I know several people that have been on the site for years, and haven't posted 1 time.

Hit up ACW , he likes makin' lists of stuff.:jest:

Not of tens of thousands of members that I'd have to look at profiles of individually!! :lol:

What would be helpful for people wanting to see users in their area is if the Location field were searchable from the Search Members form, and if it showed up in the 'table of member results' view. Not gonna happen any time soon though, the admins have very little time for stuff like that.


Someone did start a Frappr map for ls1tech recently! :)

I knew that there was more than the average from observing in all the threads on peoples sidebar profile, but Holy Guacamole. Seems like everyones sidebar profile says TX. Just look at this thread. :jest:
