 This does not affect older braggers but as of yesterday, new braggers are required to state their country of residence. For privacy, you can hide your country from others viewing your profile.

The reason I did this is because I'm planning to get the price guide progressing soon and one of the features I want to have is the ability to differentiate values by region.
A Canadian 2009 10-cent coin is going to be harder to acquire in Sierra Leone than it would be in Canada.

To do this, I'll need to know where everyone is located. Even as prices are added, it won't reveal where you are from unless you add that in the comments. We'll have separate trend charts which will show anonymous values. It will be awesome...once we have more prices on the site.

If you are already a member, please put your country in your profile, feel free to hide it. I'm not going to tell anyone nor will I be giving that information to anyone. :)

Thanks!

It is a good idea,but a start towards weeding out the spammers.

 I think Aidan is referring to the bots that join our site. Luckily they have not figured out how to post yet.
