O.P. Search People of one country
Hey I got an idea today and I don't think will be to hard to do it... allow the search engine in member list to search people of the country you selected previously in a list... with this feature you will be able to find people of your same country or whatever country you want to... :$

I don't see how this an invasion of privacy, or even worse, stalking...

If poeple don't want to reveal their country, they don't need to fill it in. Also, this request is not for an auto-mail everypeople of country X kind of spam thingie (I hope :p)

The ability to for example sort the userlist by country could be handy for some people wanting to meet new people or simply asking for something (I'm thinking of translation issues, tests, or even setting up a meeting or whatever).

Personally, I don't really need such a feature. But I don't see immediatly how it is an invasion of privacy or anything like that.

I plan to integrate a member list into my country stats page, so you can view the top 20 posters (for example) from each country. :p

Sorting the member list by country wouldn't work very well due to some technical reasons (including the fact that only 2.7% of our members have a country set), but a "search by country" feature would be possible.
