Where you're from is less important that where you
are.
Abe wasn't a Kentuckian, he was an American. And he ran for office as a Republican from Illinois.
The point is simple, grossly mis-representing your location to a completely different area or non-existent one doesn't help you any, just makes you look like a dork. Then you ask a question and someone says go here, except that you have to explain again and again that you're not there, you're somewhere else. Like the first post... All he had to do is put his actual location in the profile and he wouldn't have had to mention he's not actually there, but somewhere else.
This is why I'm not a Mod.
It's one thing to put your location as a major city more or less nearby. It's completely useless to put your location across the country from where you are, in a different time zone.
