So it came up in another thread that we have a map where you can place a pin to show where you are located. It's kind of fun to see at a glance where someone lives or if there are more members of the ROD family near you.

I thought I'd just put up a thread to show you where it is and how to place your pin. I've included pretty pictures for those of you who cannot read so you have no excuses. So here goes:

First thing is go to the three dots near the right of the top menu bar. When you hover over it a drop down menu should show. Click on Member Map.

When the Member Map page comes up, look for and click on Add or Update Location.

Type in your zip code and click on Search.

Select the result that matches your location.

And that's pretty much it.

Now if you want to see if a pin was placed in your location, just look to the right and select your name from the list. Or you can select someone else's name if you want to start stalking them. It still may be difficult because when I was trying to stalk @Selassie I , it still wouldn't give me his exact location. I had to trick him into giving it to me. He's so easy. But I digress.

What will come up is a little banner at the bottom of the map and a number or pin where the person is located. In this instance, there are two of us who have placed their pins in the Reno area. Sometimes you may have to look around a bit to find the pin for the person you are looking for.

If you click on the number, it will expand the map and show you the members in that area.

So there you go. Give it a shot and show us where you call home. You may just be surprised when another member hits you up to go buy him a beer when he's in town.

Cheers, and GO RAMS!!!

Voted Yes.
Only because I had seen it in the thread you are referring to.
Did not know the map existed.
Glad you have now set this up

And they won't be able to read that so your intent may be lost on them.

I have to do everything for you don't I LOL.

I'm curious if the poll is multiple choice. Most of the options apply....

Was able to add name, but no map appeared on Samsung smart phone. Held phone horizontal to make sure too. There were no hyperlinks for names either.

Hold it above your head while standing on one foot and move it around slowly. It will show up. Trust me.:cool:

I see a pin for you in London.

Yep. You're there. You are apparently just over the hill from me.

It's been there for years. Wish I could take credit for it. It came up today and I realized we hadn't mentioned it in a long time. Glad you like it.
