Would it be possible for the new and existing members to change their Location from say Australia or their State to City/Suburb/Town and the State? Reason for asking the state, is that some suburbs names are also in other states.
Most of the members on here are generous with their time, knowledge and offer of help but cannot always do it because the OP has no location listed, so its back to ask another question, yet again and add another day or more to the response. I don't feel that this is an invasion of privacy as all you are giving out is a basic area where you live.
If you'd like to know how to go about making/repairing a certain article, a photo, sketch or drawing is better than a thousand words, it doesn't have to be draughtsman quality, take a photo and download it, is what I do, as I don't know how to scan pics etc.
The same with equipment, if a member asks for advise on how to do something, could they please list the major machines that are available to them. Maybe this part could go in their profile, just a thought.
I've also noticed that a lot of replies to threads have "reply with quote" even though the thread they are replying to is immediatley above. We have been asked not to do this as it makes thread unneccesarily long.
Anyone else have similar comments to make this fantastic Forum even better?
