Let people decide for themselves if they want to post where they are,i'm not in the states,i don't think it really matters,someone got an order in 6 days from a well known iop,mine took 17 days and i am nearer to the vendor so its a bit pointless saying where you are imo,again,keep it simple.Admin have enough on their hands without threads being divided into sub categories,then someone will probably want a sub cat of a sub cat,no offense towards original poster.

Hi guys,
this is such a double edge sword.
It took me almost an hour this morning (over breakfast) scanning forwards and back through 2 weeks of postings in the PPE2U thread trying to figure how long ago a pigeon has landed in the US from this vendor. I ended up posting the requested information. We are an international forum and many do not state where they are located when announcing that they have received an order. Is there a way to sub categorize a vendors thread?
I value all the contributions that are actually contributing, that is the reason I have such respect for the senior members /Mods. and those who provide valuable information.
cheers!

Posting which country the receiver belongs to is the poster's personal choice. We don't force anyone to post any information which may leave a trial to the vendor or his packages at any point. Posting dates is enough in my opinion. Posting which country and which carrier used may cause problems otherwise.

Keeping your request in mind others would want a thread for posting about product quality from the vendor and this would create a mess in the end forcing us to delete all such threads or merge them into one.

Mr Admin... I totaly agree with you my friend... Saftey first is a great rule to go by... Indeed with even MORE info at their fingertips, they ones we don't want to know what's what will surely have an advantage...

The less they know suits me just fine...

Thanks Admin for always watching our backs...

I completely understand where you guys are coming from and I can see your reasons. I whole heartedly agree with whatever is going to keep us receiving packages and our vendors doors open to send packages. Your points are clear Admin, so we will keep it the same. 
And I know what you mean about cleaning out the receiving thread being a pain in the butt. That itself seems a job in itself. I'm not trying to put even more work on your shoulders. I think you guys are doing a great job and I appreciate all you guys do to keep the community safe.

You can always PM the member and ask them what region they are from: MW, PNW, SE, NE, WC. But with g00gle and other s3arch engines trolling us, less is better. Even on DuckDuckGo, if I type in ioplis <without the T it already brings up i0plist/ttm> meaning the data mining already knows what is being typed. I even typed in a keyword from a recent thread without typing in i0plist and it brought that exact thread up as the first result. It was a thread I started on Alm3e x@nax. I about pooped my pants!!
