mailin 0 #1 April 4, 2004 Noticed you took off posting status (which is a good thing) - perhaps you can list location in its place? I know I'm always looking to see where people are from. JenniferArianna Frances Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
souleh 0 #2 April 4, 2004 Yeah that's a good idea.. by the end of a long interesting thread, there seem to be tons of popups where I've looked at profiles to see location etc Edit to add: And / or how about listing user registration dates? I know there's two sides to every coin and it could have it's disadvantages, but for example with this post: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1017404;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;;page=unread#unread The user had been a member of the forum for 1 day and made 1 post, that one being it.. if their registration date had been listed, it might have given a clear sudden indication as to possible motives or types of posting.. wether they'd lurked or not and so forth? Just an idea. 'buttplugs? where?' - geno Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kris 0 #3 April 4, 2004 The posting status removal may just be a temporay thing. It looks like there's a lot of work being done to the site right now.Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know I'm always looking to see where people are from. agreed. we used to be able to search by drop zone. when that was removed we could still search by state. now that has been removed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ earthbound misfit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chrisky 0 #13 April 7, 2004 Count me in on location. BUT, being based in a town with more than one DZ around (Vancouver: Pitt Meadows and Abbottsford DZs), and also having different Home DZs in different countries set my home DZ count to 3, the possible DZs in my area to 2. Thus i would prefer the town where i live (and might team up with others for a ride to a DZ) as the location for posting. Overall, GREAT improvements! I really really really like it!The mind is like a parachute - it only works once it's open. From the edge you just see more. ... Not every Swooper hooks & not every Hooker swoops ...

Zeemax 0 #14 April 7, 2004 Good idea, i was just coming to to suggest it myself. Even just country would be really good, but if theres room, home DZ would be cool too Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shotgun 1 #15 April 7, 2004 I was just coming here to suggest that too... "Location" or "Home DZ" would be good. (Or is that just too much stuff to have in a "mini profile"???) The changes are great! Thanks, sangiro!

And much apreciated by all. I'm always looking at profiles to see where someone is posting from... But then again, How much info can there be in those mini profiles before the regular profiles are obsolete? The Mini profiles seem to me like necessary information in judging ones credibility when reading their post. A location has almost nothing to do with credibility issues.
