It's a bit silly to have to troll through all of the threads to find our where people are? Would it make sense to make it a requirement of a post that a location tag be put as the first word? Say for the city where the item is located or wanted? |

Some people put their location in the side near their username. Some people don't want the world to know where they are. Personally I think you would turn people away if it is a requirement... Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2 |

Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2 I meant specifically for the buy and sell thread - so you don't look at a thread that says "mega awesome setup for $5" only to have a look and find out it's in perth when you're in Canberra |

Not really feasible I'm afraid... That would require custom coding of the phpbb software, and then it would need further custom coding each time an update came out. For a section of the forum where there's only 9 threads posted in a month, it's just not really worth it.. |

Rather than coding maybe have a pinned item asking if poster can use subject in form off " [Location] - 2nd Hand 500lt pump" |

That is how i have seen it done too. For Sale Guidelines sticky. Any thread that does not comply gets deleted. But then they have more than 9 posts a month.... Just more for the mods to do
