Wondering why more of the posters don't put their location (CITY/state) in their profiles. IMHO it would make their postings more interesting and meaningful. How many times have you been reading a post, wondering where he/she lives and look up in the corner to see the poster's location and it isn't there?

Maybe people don't want to share their city and state for security reasons?

Don't give out your street address [unless you want to],

Never give out:
Your SSN#,
Your bank account #

But realistically I see no problem giving out my real name, and township.

We belong to a farmer's Market, their website even gives folks addresses.

I agree 100% but the security issue is a concern amongst many people. I on the other hand like to check a poster's info just to glimpse a little background (nosey I guess)
