I liked having the person's location under their name in the old forums. Now you have to click and go into their profile to see where they're from.
Any chance we can get that feature back? It's much more useful to have the location in the main thread view. |

Nick | But it's much more useful if people choose from a country location drop-down menu - I noticed while TB was down, that Bass Plaza/Bass.nl does this and nobody has complained about choosing their country from the drop-down list!!

Before the upgrade, I made a habit of checking everyone's location when reading their posts, that's pretty much impossible now without spending a lot of extra time.
