    Just Noticed People's Locations

    Why are so many of us trikers so afraid to show where we live? You think people are going to come and steal you bikes? Like some idiots just put "Somewhere with my trike"

    I have wondered the same thing before. I find it interesting seeing where everyone is from but many members wish not to say or they just say what state they are from?

    I give the state, which is a general indicator of where I live. If anybody has any reason to wonder exactly where I live in Kansas, they will contact me by pm or e-mail. Not neccesarily to be unfriendly, just cautious..

    No trikes. Too old, too crippled. Unless I find one I can't live without!

    Even if someone posted they were from the same town as mine, I would still not know exactly were they live. I am not goint to go out and start driving by everyone's garage to see if I see a trike. Then again, I am not a thief, and I am not as determined as some of the thieves around here! My car was stolen from my house once and from work once!

    I am one of the ones "afraid" to put exactly where I live. I actually pissed my self while writing this. I think just the state gives a good enough idea of where someone is from.

    I'm paranoid so I don't give my exact town. When you live in a very small town it's not such a huge task to figure it out

    Its funny because with a simple free puter program anyone can grab your IP addy and knock on your door. I have seen it used on Rappy forums.

    Just curious... How does your IP address get associated with your street address. I know you could get a general idea if your isp uses geographical dns server names.

    if you go to google and type in do they know where i live then click i'm feeling lucky

    It should bring you to this site: http://ask-leo.com/how_do_those_ads_...re_i_live.html

    It's just a geographical location not pin point you to your address. Unless hackers have some kind of trick out there.

    I just went general, If your in the northeast you would probably know about where I am, If I only put my town's name not too many people would know at all.
