    Howdy BA admins,

    I was just wondering when user city names would be coming back to our profiles? I know for little bitty states, it doesn't matter... but in places like Texas, California, Florida, and New York we have DRASTICALLY different distribution from city center to city center. It makes it difficult to talk about local bars, new beers (since lots of our locals in Texas, in particular, don't make it to the other metro areas because of distance), and meet local BAs.

    I'm not asking for a custom field for Location (since, no doubt that would be abused), but it would be as easy as adding fields like
    "TX-Austin"
    "TX-Dallas"
    "TX-Fort Worth"
    "TX-Houston"
    "TX-San Antonio"
    "TX-Corpus Christi"
    "TX-El Paso"

    Sincerely,
    -Texas.

    I liked when we were able to put in our specific city/town location. I'd like to see it back.

    agree, custom city would be nice. Also, for canadian provinces, you dont need to put (Canada) in brackets. If you dont know Alberta is in Canada, your ******ed.
