Not too long past, the TN structured format of the posters information listed the state below the avitar. This informative indicater is now gone.
This site has been modified and tweeked numerous times...many for the better.
However I agree that many postings would be more informative if the reader knew that the item or topic being discussed was from the State of Indiana, Ohio or wherever, or if the person posting would provide a narrower geographic area, such as northern Michigan or central Texas.
I often times would like to know the approximate geographic location of a find, for instance, especially when its a Civil War find or a significant coin.
Often times, with some posts, the geographic area is not indicated for obvious reasons of security.
As an example, I responded to a post listing some information and was immediately attacked openly on the post and by PM, wanting specific information almost to the exact location coordinate. However, thbis is the extreme.
Good topic.
