I routinely see the question "are there any members near me". I think I even asked that in the past.
It would be fun if there was a US map with pins at every ACMOC members location. Set it up so if you hover over the pin it would show you the members username.
As we all travel on vacation or business, we could see who is in that area.
Just a thought....

go to the acmoc homepage and log in...then scroll down to the very bottom and you will see the members list.
Open link then you can search by name, state, etc.

I just thought it would be a lot easier if there were an actual map showing locations. Even though we live in the same state not many people have heard of Erhard Mn or know where it is.
Just a quick reference would be great

Interesting idea! Good for those of us that are visually oriented

I like the map idea as well. I wonder what it would take to create one?
In my area alone, I’ve had people that were members/subscribers and I wasn’t even aware.
Thanks for the suggestion. JM

beaver-flat,

Yet another time I must write that this forum software has an ongoing problem of incorrectly showing the status of a poster. We are working to solve this problem by rolling out our new website on September 1. We apologize for the miss-labeling. Normally, I would encourage you to contact the ACMOC office and Mary Clark, our administrator would solve this issue, however, with the near term roll out of the new website, Mary has a full plate at this time. If you can standby for another week, we will be glad to get you statused properly. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Once everything settles down for the new software, we can take a look at how a map might be created and maintained. The first problem is keeping it current with the constant shift of members dropping out and new folks joining us. As mentioned, a little bit of work on a members part to check the already well maintained Members List, will yield the answers of "who else is a member and do any of them live near me." Just say'in.

I like the idea of a map showing members locations. I think it would be very helpful.

Hey Jan sorry to bother you as i know you are very busy with the changes taking place but it says i am a guest also but I'm really a paid member if you could take care of it for me to. Never worried about it before but with the new website and member perks i better get that taken care of so i can do all the things us paid guys will be able to do on the new website. Thanks again.

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
