Location in Hiding

The first thing I look at when reading someones comments is to see where they are from. I am still amazed that we have women or men from all over the world. But if you want to be "in hiding" it doesn't bother me. We are all different so I believe in Live and Let Live.

I just feel if someone wants to ask a question they should trust us enough to at least say what state or country they are in it just makes me feel Ican't trust them either so better to keep quiet and not answer just my thoughts

I think it is basically 2 things...the first being that when people sign up, they just don't know to fill that in and secondly...people doing the secret pal, secret Santa, secret angel type things- they don't want their recipient to guess who sent them a package.

Again I'll say that perhaps the moderators should change their wording to something a little less covert. Seems as though the term "in hiding" could better be stated with another word or term that may evoke more trust, or just a little less mistrust.

Does it matter? I don't think it has anything to do with being proud of where you are from or not. One of the things that is great about this board is the non-judgmental attitude that is here. Let's not change that over something that is not that important.
We can all PM each other and if you decide that you really like someone on the board PM them to see if you are close enough to get together. Then respect whatever their answer is.
