Could we have the community "near you" button back?

I remember when I joined the site there was a button where you could see the members who live in your country. It was a great way for me to talk to people also from South Africa. Could we have that feature back?

it never seemed to work for me-- of course I might just be the only crafter in my area on here too.

I did like the idea of it though.

I came on to the board to suggest a way to find people near us and this was the first post. WEEEEIRD.

I liked that, especially if you live in obscure places or notin a city, it'd be good to have it back. Happy

I agree. I just moved to Kauai and I dont know anyone. Might be cool to know if there are any crafters near me.

To be fair, they moved to the states last summer and were traveling around a lot. When you have only 2 people running a website as big as this it can take time to get stuff done.
