What happened with "location" under the avatars?

What??

It was never shown there... maybe you're getting this mixed up with another board?

it 'dissapeared () a long time ago.
Not really related to the last upgrade.
It should be added back!

Edit: WDZ, it was there long time ago (when we were on devbb )

Well, I just noticed it now

Agree with Chrono, it should be added back

EDIT: Damn, you're fast!

yes u are right
i just checked some of my screenshots () and the location was there when we were on devbb, but dissapeared after the upgrade to mybb
it would be nice to have the locations visible here. its annoying to check profiles (remove the silly reputation thingy that we aint using yet and put locations instead )

Well, currently users can enter a long string such as "City, State, Country, Continent, Planet" and I'm certainly not going to allow all that to be shown next to posts.

What would be better is a standard list of countries that the user can select from... and then maybe integrate the little flags as well. Maybe the flag could be shown instead of the country name... that would look kinda crappy though.

@ flag. would look crappy with this theme
just put a limit of X characters so people wont put such long locations

Blah, just limit the text to 10 chars or something

EDIT: Are you reading my mind, Chrono?

Central Israel = 14 chars

I think it's not a bad idea. I also think that small flags would look nice.

The Flags!

I'm not sure about putting location on. I think it looks kinda crappy. Esp if you can type anything in.

I don't really think a persons location really needs to be added to the side of their posts.  Afterall, what's so hard about just clicking the profile button to see a users location, if you really want to know it.

As for the flags, I've seen similar things on other forums and in my honest opinion they just make the page look ugly.  Besides, there are that many countries you would need a whole load of small flags.

That already exists from the first DevBB we had when WDZ added them.

Don't like it iether. As said before, it doesn't bring anything valueble to the posts. If I wanna know who's from what country, I'll check the profile...

hey but isnt reputation kidna pointless, because the really important people already have that caption above the stars...
and it does look crowded around there

everything says (or should say) something about the quality of the posts the person makes. (except the gender). The reputation isn't working yet, but it is going to be implemented eventualy. The stars and title have nothing to do with reputation but with postcount.
