Admins...search function possibility? ive noticed ALOT in our regional forums that theres a lot of threads on
"who's in dallas?" "who's in orlando?"....etc etc....instead of having those threads, can we have a search function on the advanced members list search?....such as a "members within 100 miles of zip code______"...thus showing whos around you and a person just being able to pm guys about cruises and events....instead of "WHO'S IN BFE?"....theres a similiar search on fquick.....cmon brian/tony....ya got a page of bouncing smileys
...i know this can be done....thanks.....

that would require everyone to register their personal zipcode. I've seen it done on other forums, back in the day, and it was noted before registration. The sponsor list is done that way, but I'd presume that a user system setup like that would be alittle more complicated, especially getting everyone to list their zip, etc.
it is a great idea though.

You wouldn't have to regeister your zip code, just like you don't need to list your location. But I would think most people would do it for exactly the reasons listed above.

thanks fellas...the main reason for it, was just as i stated...i mean we all love to get together, but for example in the jacksonville fl area theres probably 20-30 ls1tech guys....but because of how often most of them post, youd only think there were 5-10...its just ive met alot of them or have seen guys post before, to know theres alot of guys....i just think it would be easier to pm guys you know are around you...then spamming your regional forum with "meet with us" stuff....ehhh heres to thinking
