    how come no one puts their real location in the personal information on the left side of the posts? it seems like everyone puts something weird...it seems like people used to list their real location but not so much anymore...maybe there is a growing concern for privacy.

    Hm.. For us Brits, not much could be obtained simply by putting the county we live in on here.. But maybe we ARE afraid for our freedom and privacy..

    I'm not sure about the States.. You have, well, states of course, but you have county that may help evil-doers locate you..

    Maybe the bigger fear is a simple one. That you just don't want PM's from people just becasue they live within 50 miles of you.. I know I don't respond well to that.

    im pretty sure my location has always said what it does now. its weird getting random PMs from people living in or close to the state but it doesnt bother me enough to change it

    perhapse some, if not most of us, would rather be living someplace wierder then where we are. i know i would. and on line at least, you can BE who and what, ever you wish to pretend to be. like the one legged man playing tarzan.

    and why the hell not?

    maybe, just maybe, or immaginations are truer to our true selves, then whatever mundane conditions, in real life, we are surrounded by.

    i can think of a couple of other good reasons too. but i consider this the best of them.

    18 thousand five hundred and how many posts? I can only just about comprehend that number.Any way - I'm crap at faking my nationality - I'm english and it's a different sense of humour apparently.I could start saying things like dang and y'all but it just wouldn't work,and anyway - thats not cricket,don't you know.Furthermore I'm from Ozzy Osbournes home town so if I typed in that accent it would be more like..
    'alriight mate - how yer doin' our kid? Yow bin owt on the piss or wot? Yow need a kipper tie!' ( cup of tea )
