Hello,

looks like there is a top at this moment that people don't say where they come from...
So i thought about something.

Since it is not possible to "force" people to enter their location when they subscribe, i thought about something else:

Wouldn't there be an option to send them an automatic message when they subscribe where you put in:
Welcome to the forum etc...

Please update your Profile and location by pressing My controls -> Profile Information (-> Your location).

Just an idea from me, could be wrong

That's a good idea. I assume the board does send an e-mail to new users who register however after searching through the settings I couldn't find anywhere to modify that. Probably another code hack needs to be done.

No problemo. I also assumed we got an e-mail at the beginning but couldn't find it either... So i'm glad that "problem" will be solved soon since it is quite annoying that you don't know where people coming from if they ask for parts or paintshops etc.
