New Members, Not required to state thier Location

This originally posted in Talk to Us, But is sort of a complaint and not allowed there.
So, What is up with this new twist in the forum?
All older members Show their location.
New Members are allowed to conceal? Or not disclose their location?
We might all have to Hide our location, In this new knee jerk society.
If we are not All honest what are we?

I cannot answer as to why that part has changed Don, but another change is a more difficult password requirement, which I think is good. The forum has been spam free for several years now and this is due to the changes which were made and continue to be made in order to stay ahead of the spammers and hackers.
