Forum issues/gripes/suggestions/whatever

I know this place has gone through a few remodels, a few knock-downs, but I find the current forum template/whatever to be a little lacking.
I haven't been active for a while, but there are a few things I've run across and am just curious about whether these can be added/modified:
1. Where are people at? It used to be that users could set their location information so people knew where they were from (if they wanted people to know). Looking at items for sale or in WTB is kind of ridiculous because you have no idea whether people are even in the same country as you are.....
2. Date/Time of posts - Can we not see both? From what I can tell it's an either/or, but I can't tell when it changes from time to date. I've seen posts made on threads the same day as others below but some show time and some show date. It's helpful to see if you've just missed someone (they may be active on the forum at the moment or not, but you can at least see when they last posted in the thread without having to go to the main page, look for their icon, then click on them to see when they were last active.....
Anyways, just curious as to the why's (if this is allowed o be asked).

Saying that it's "too hard" to pursue your dreams is no different than admitting to yourself that you are too lazy to achieve them.
there is a lot lacking on the vanilla show
I shan't argue that the forum software is, um, "lacking" in many ways, but you *can* see the date (and time) of posts by hovering over the timestamp on a post. (I'm assuming you're on a computer; I'm not brave enough to use the mobile site on a phone/tablet.)

Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
"I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion."
My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

I don't know about the women aspects but it do sound like there could be a fair amount of pain involved
Women and pain go together like peas and carrots Ivan.
