Country Section Idea!

[DMotovlogs]

So I was thinking...

Would it be possible to have a page that would have the names of countries (ex. Canada, United States, UK, etc.) and once clicked on those names/flags, show all the members who are from the country in a list?
This would make socializing with members of the same area a lot easier in my opinion.

Anyways, thanks for the read, vote above if you think It would be beneficial, or if you don't give a rat's ass.

As i belive dan said before this just seperates the posters, why does it matter what country you are from? if you need to post theirs the meet section for the countrys.

Well it is just so we know who is in the area I guess.

Pretty sure the flags under your name gives that away

yes I know, but it is hard finding everyone from a specific country. Not everyone posts often.

More encouragement for members to put their country/state/region in their user info would be cool....everyone has their privacy preferences though...

Isn't there one of those 'pin yourself' on a map threads somewhere?? ... If not .. Then perhaps a map situ presents itself....those that want to can put their 'pin' in on a zoomable world map kinda thing... With a search function/drop down menu so others can select the country/region etc from the list and see who pops up within range?

.... Of course interacting with folks on the board and asking questions/watching videos so you learn about them might work too..... .... Even with the Faiths Birthday video thread .. I was browsing through the vids and suddenly heard my towns name! ... ... Looked him up and now we have been on a couple rides around local area... Hi Krieger650 ! ..

Nothin like a bit of old fashioned interaction by flexing the keyboard fingers! ... Everyone wants instant gratification nowadays!! .... Lol

I am one the fence on the idea, but what did impress me is that by "looking at the flags", everyone up to me has NOT been from the United States. That is impressive. Most boards I frequent are heavily US based.

that map is an awesome Idea. I just had to pin myself when I started on Motovlogs.com
I couldn't help myself

Yeh so the diff country aspect is kinda useless mate

WTF is this Sh*t? No, Terrible Idea!
In your own words mate. I don't want to be alone in a subforum talking to myself. The zeemap helps you find forum members or vloggers near your area, there is no need to generate country-specific forum content. Just look at this tread, people from 5 different countries. Would you rather stop this from happening and end up talking in a canada-only subforum?
Wow, I sound so angry, I'm not angry at all.
