juliaoceania -> RE: About Collarme's UK/Canada glitch ... (3/2/2010 7:39:58 AM)

ORIGINAL: BLoved
For at least the past two years, new profiles where "United Kingdom" is selected as the country are changed so that the country field says "Canada". Meanwhile, new Canadian profiles are changed so that the country field says "United Kingdom".
This can be corrected by editing and updating the profile, but the initial confusion for every new user is a pain.
Consider that there is a London in Ontario, Canada. No way of knowing if a new profile is for London England or London Canada (did the user correct the error or not).
Furthermore, England gets spammed a good deal more than Canada, so Canadians get the bulk of the fake profiles intended for the UK.
So, as this problem is over two years old, I am wondering if Collarme has any plans to correct it.
What a perfect opportunity for an icebreaker!
Hey, I noticed you marked your profile "London", did you intend to mark it as London, Canada or London, England. I ask because Collar Me has a glitch in the location fields and it sometimes puts people in the wrong search area. Whenever I happen upon a profile where I suspect this confusion I email them and let them know about this glitch on Collar Me, especially when their profile is as intriguing as yours. I have very high standards, and you seem so very interesting... my name is Bob, by the way"
Talk about your gaping opening for contact... and you wanted CM to fix it!
