Just wondered if newbies could be prompted to put their location on their profile from the off.
Many newbies sign up to the site for advice on a present problem with their Meega... If their loco was there it could aid the most closest of us to them to offer assistance, loan of equipment etc....
Just a thought!!

It would be good if they were also pointed toward the map in their introductory e-mail too.
You could even ask them their location as they register and then use this field to auto-populate this element of their profile. This principle of functionality could be applied to the make and model of their car too. It is essentially no different to their username.

Personally I'm against any sort of "compulsion"... some folks may wish NOT to have their location shown.. I agree its helpful.. but should be voluntary

You could always have a "show location" tick-box
