    Hiding location?

    Why are you hiding your location on this forum?

    Is it because:
    • you are not proud of your country
    • or you are concern about your privacy
    • or you are too lazy to add it
    • or you don't think that it's important
    • or ...

    I would like to know a reason.


    P.S. This is a part of my social research about forums and other communities.

    so I guess my post helps people know why I would publish it, and sometimes why I won't. : )

    Don't know if I've added it here but it's usually because I'm too lazy to add it anyway.

    To be honest, I'm embarrassed by England for reasons that are not needed to be aired on a free webhosting forum. It matters to me, but for you (the reader here) it probably doesn't matter so much.

    I'm always looking for reasons why some people do or don't like their country, if you don't mind sharing it on forums...possible for a PM?...just wondering.

    Re: Hiding location?

    i've got mine listed on this site, but normally i'm too lazy to put it on other sites, unless i'm an active member.

    you are not proud of your country (no, but at times i'd rather be elsewhere... :angel: *cough*norway*cough* :angel: :P)
    or you are concern about your privacy (no, newark's too broad of an area)
    or you are too lazy to add it (yea)
    or you don't think that it's important (on some sites)

    Re: Hiding location?

    I have no problems with people knowing the country I am from. I just don't see why someone in a message forum needs to know the exact street, city and state I live in.

    I highly doubt I'll meet people from here, and if I do - I would of given them that information privately.
