Mandatory "20"
So many times we've helped out a member or seen something asked in the forums when we eventually must ask "what's your 20?". Make that a condition of registration?

OK, I made this a required field in order to register. Keep in mind that we can't police that people actually put in the actual location where they live.

For those existing members that had left this field blank I did a bulk update to "X5world".

Good suggestion by JV and good install by UCrew...I don't care if someone is slightly vagueish or even makes up a place, but it sure helps vis a vis, some of the questions, imo. ThumbsUp,imo.

What does it mean to ask "what is your 20" and where did it originate from?

Correction for that site...10-100 needs to be changed to 10-101 or 10-102
