Hi Karl, as a member from 2003, a long time ago, the location requriement didn't exist then. It is due to laws in Aust, and the admins might be held responsible for certain types of posts in certain states. So if necessary, ... Also laws regarding selling firearms.

I am not aboding in any state if that makes it easy.

As for the BIO, look to your own profile, where you obviously inserted that comment. The BIO requirement came a long time after 2003.

And it hasn't been noticed as you haven't posted for years. Welcome back from your "hotspots".

Nitrox, again, feel free to change the location. Make it the same as the member Lancaster above if you wish," a lighthouse in the middle of..." .Not sure where you gathered I am 'back from hotpots' but thanks for the wlecome. As to what is inserted into the BIO, that has not changed either. Both comments were also a long time ago, but also a long time after 2003, probably 2011 from memory. But as I already said you have my permission, as you offered, to modify personal information fields to suit NE's updated screening requirements.
