As i have observed lately that many of the members here have not mentioned their current location, which at times present some difficulties and confusion. so i request the administrator to make it compulsory(if possible during registration) for all the members.

I agree. Updating your location can mean someone can point you in the right direction locally instead of having to rely on out station sourcing and unwanted shipping charges. Also is a good idea so that hobbyists can meet and share knowledge and help.

most people do not like sharing information. its human nature i guess. its sad cos knowledge shared is knowledge gained.

Well I dont know the reason behind not updating the locations of some persons, is it because they dont know where to update it? Or just want to stay in touch online only..
