Isn’t it about time the site remapped the areas
We live in Yorkshire but are stuck between north east for Leeds and east midlands for Sheffield and Doncaster
Perhaps segregation by county eould be clearer ?
Any thoughts anyone |

I've never worried about the geography myself. It's not perfect, but given you can type in whatever you want as your location and search by distance, accuracy doesn't mean that much.
If you're on the northern border of Devon for example, you'll be closer to people in Somerset than you will Cornwall.
How specific you are when putting in your hone location and postcode is entirely optional. |

Serious question.
I know the geography is flawed, but do people not use the advanced search function? You can set the radius from your location however distant you want. Which means whether you're in an accurately described area or a huge one, in the middle or on the border of two regions, you'll get results from people close to you.
Just a thought. 🤷♂️ |

Well the meets look up screen could benefit from having a distance thing as the areas really are woeful and inaccurate.
As others have said East Midlands is huuuge.
The advanced search does do by location and distance but the algorithm is far to concerned with latest online and overrides distance too much.
I understand the reason for that..keeping things relevant and not showing dead profiles but i'd like to see a way of overriding that so i can actually see who is in my range. |
