That could be a bad thing at the same time. What if some jerk comes on here looks up some one that is close to him and starts scoping out there house. I'd have to where it was only visible to Gold members which I'm not a part of, YET. I guess it would be OK for a city location instead of a home location.Personally, I think it should be a required field when filling out the registration info. Without a city and/or ZIP Code, you won't get in the door.
Rumblefish360 and I were talking about this very thing on the phone a couple days ago. A map of all FABO members' locations would be a handy thing and let you easily find members who are close by. I'll dig around and see what I can find ... the Barracuda Owners Group had a Frapper.com map that was really cool.
Just my two cents.
map won't let me add my location for some reasonGalactic, your point is very well taken and it's a good one.
The map I'm talking about doesn't show street addresses, just the city. I started one if anyone else would care to join in.

Come on! My door is always open to you.Hmmmm, that's strange Inkie. When I click on the link, the first thing that shows on the map is "Join this map ..."
You can click on the + or - to zoom in or out, so even our Canadian / International members can be shown too. Though I put myself down as Leanna ~ The CudaChick, it would probably be a better idea to use our FABO ID / user names for easier reference.
Thanks for adding yourself Kevin! I'm jumpin in the Cuda to go scope out your house now. LMAO
map was just real slow to load....

Let's just say a member here had an idiot list his adress for all to see with the help of a "friend" in the police department and did some illegal snooping just to prove a point that an adress could be found by someone's tag # on a pic of their car and got his *** in a sling over it too.
If you want someone's location for parts or something, there is nothing wrong with sending them a PM because there are alot of stalkers on the web, and even friendly sites like this have their share of nutwads.
I guess it's not big deal until someone oversteps their boundaries.
There is also the issue of listing someones address that ripped you off for all to see.
Now that could start a whole bunch of trouble for everyone, including the webmaster.
All is takes is one idiot with a few loose marbles, and everyone gets a visit from the authorities.
