Sometimes we end up having discussions / conversations with people that live next door and we don't even know it. Wouldn't it be cool to have that feature, as the old styled bulletin boards had? Would it be also possible to have some sort of feature allowing us to easily see if we have other people in the same city / zone as us?
Would it be possible to put the user locations on the forum posts?

While I have no interest in anything that would automate this without some kind of clear opt-in (user privacy), nothing stops anyone from posting such information about themselves in a introduction tag or in their bio, which you can currently view by hovering over a username in a post.
Of course, something that separates this into some kind of searchable manner (eg find all in a given city) would be very cool!
As JTL said, this would fall info a Flarum extension, so requesting it here would be a good first step

Just have it as the "Location: foobar" tag when you hover over a username (outside the bio though) and have it being searchable.

I would actually do it myself but have been busy with other stuff lately.

Slacor I would prefer to have location info next to the user nick or something like that. It gets highly impractical to have to go each couple of months go the intro post to check where people are from. I for one never even look at that thread.
