We're not looking for anyone's home address. But at least a state would be nice to know. (Actually I DON'T want to know everyone's address) The main reason behind the rule is to allow people to find people near them that might be able to physically assist at times.
Also I ask for a state/location now because when I approve EVERY account that gets registered, I look up their IP to confirm their IP location matches up with their listed location. The scammers/spammers typically use VPNs or will blatantly lie about their location, so I reject them from the start.
The reason for the "singled out" here is because the user has been asked more than once to update their location to which they've ignored. And on a update, I sent them a message with a exact link on how/where to update it at.
