I just don't understand why people (apart from the few that I mentioned) would choose not to perform that simple act.The country flag is compulsory at registration, but there seems to be a bug in the plugin that screws that up.Reviving an old thread.I thought that was fixed and it certainly seemed to be however a recently joined member has been able to mess with his profile to hide his flag. https://www.eevblog.com/forum/profile/?u=764816Maybe you need a compulsory Location also with locations only selectable from a popup menu.

Just edit your forum profile. The 'Country' pulldown has a blank line at the top of the list. Select the blank line and click the 'change profile' button. I'm now a proud citizen of 00.
Just did another zero user purge who haven't logged in the last three months.10 pages worth, so thousands of accounts.

This is not a criticism, just an observation as prior purges never seemed to remove zero post accounts either.https://www.eevblog.com/forum/mlist/?sort=posts;start=0

They just are silent types.
