    Well i have vb and use vbulletin.org.

    and ive found a mod where you have a flag on your name everytime you post you select it through user CP.

    I think its a good idea to represent your country.

    Yeah i used it on my forum, quite fun tbh. Even though only way to abuse it would be people putting country's there not from. IE: Khazakstan. :/
    but overall it's a good idea. and People using proxies to show where there from well, you sythe staff can take care of that im sure.
    If a admin wants the link to where i got it i'd be happy :)

    thanks

    Just something more to slow Sythe down, but it does sound like a nice idea.

    I would like it, with it, it would be easier to deduce if someone is selling a US or EU WoW account when they forget to include it.

    How would it slower sythe down, it's not something big. And no offence half the users don't know how to join the IRC so they won't know how to use the flag.

    If it were to identify the nations by IP, it could indeed slow the forum down, although it wouldn't affect the speed that much if you entered the country manually, which would also cause abuse.

    that seems acceptable then.
    as long as it doesn't have anything to do with IP addresses, it shouldn't slow Sythe down.

    Nope nothing to do with IP address's at all, only problem is people being annoying such as someone being from USA and putting there country to Pakistan.
