Membermap ?

[Tracky]

Hey guys
So.. Heres my Idea for something new on D3!
I hope you like it or atleast understand it

Some years ago I was in a wc3 Clan - Legendary Heroes of Wc3.
On their Homepage they had a little nice addon called "Membermap".
I liked it because I could see, who lives perhaps next to me and who is someone far far away from my location
I searched around and I found an membermap addon vor vBulletin
Perhaps you could take a look on it.
Heres the Link .
The description is german, so sorry for everyone else :/
But at this post, there is another link where you can see, how the membermap could look like
Heres the other link .

I don't know if this was already posted, but I searched and haven't found anything.

Now it's up to you guys
Perhaps we could start a poll


Best regards, Tracky

I don't think it was posted here before, for as long as I've been here I think.

Yes, I guess I support this idea. And since it is just a vB add-on, don't think it'll be hard to set up

/support.

[Tracky]

Thank you
I just thought of one problem we could get...
I don't know, if you just can show " Germany " or other countrys.. You can download map's for every country, but I don't know if you can combine them all together
But I hope, we could

A world map would be nice Like Google Earth xD

[Tracky]

Yep
Is there a way to start a poll myself or do I have to wait for an admin / moderator like you to do so ?

The idea itself is good, but I think it rather fits on a clanpage than on a community, because if every leecher marks his spot, it's gonna be spammed soon. What I could imagine would be a Google Maps page in each members profile to show his location, which can, however, be enabled or disabled in the settings menu. I doubt there is such an addon though

Do you really think that a leecher cares of filling out his profile ?
And this google Earth thing what you mean.. I think it's ugly
After looking on the profile with this map of someone else, I even don't know how far I'm away from him. I'm to lazy to look it up

I do not support this idea at all. The server loads we've had recently is quite high (actually quite disturbing). Although this have improved alot since we switched servers, i dont think having an entire world map with 25k markers on it would help anything.
BTW, you wont see who is near you on a world map, you would only see that someone is possibly in the same state as you...

Unless we can change the settings of it to not have ALL the users on the site to be on that map? Perhaps elder >?

Or maybe so that it only displays current online users? (elder+)
