Default Re: What is the status on what is allowed in location fields?

First, I doubt if any mod reads every Loc text, so there are probably dozens of comments that might be removed if they are spotted. Maybe we could use this as a grassers' thread?

Second, I suspect that different mods have slightly different takes on what is or is not allowed. There are just too many different possibilities to have a totally anchored-down rule.

In my own case, I work on the basic general principle that the Loc text should not "advertise", specifically, and it should not direct other readers to the person's Profile. Therefore, I have no problem with "Coaching"**, or "Blogging", but I would delete things like "blogspot.degen", "PM me for rates", and "T$ for sale".

Edit/MH: ** One of my friendly and helpful colleagues has told me I am wrong in allowing "Coaching". This is not acceptable. My apologies.
