Location in the world is now required for new users

[Grumpy Goat]

I like that requirement, wish all sites did this.

Does the site software make it possible to display the location next to the Avatar or user name?

Not out of the box but I believe there are setting changes in the code that make this possible. There is also a plugin that may make display of a flag possible too. I will be looking into these options a bit more this weekend (I hope) and will at least report back on this.
