Hi

It would be nice to be able to have a search function for country under members. I am looking for a person in South africa - polokwane to help me.

Great forum

Many users don't include their location when registering.

Hey,

If you know the person's user id, then why do you need to know the country?

The problem is that the user id tells me nothing. The members should at least fill in which country they from.

I personaly would like to meet with a person and be involved in the process

Hey,

Providing personal details should not be mandatory for a forum like this, it is the user's personal choice whether they want to share that information or not. If you are interested in a person, then you could send them a PM, introducing yourself, and at that point they can decide whether they want to share information like that with you.

That is great that you want to deal with people on that level, but not everyone wants to do that, they prefer anonymity.

Correct! That is what the pm system is for... To send private messages including personal details to another member without having your privacy threatened on the public forum.
