I was thinking the other day about how often folk are posting about being on the bus or train or out in a pub and wondering who else on here might be there.
How about a feature that picks up if you are at the same location or say with 150m and gives you a "bumped into" notice on your profile, although only if both profiles are online at the same time. |

In theory it's a nice idea, but it would have to be something you could opt in for and it only show up if you both opted into it. I know a lot of people would be very very freaked out if it gave people a notice everytime someone on here bumped into them |

I've driven and walked past a few local fabbers. I live in a small town with a few locals and it would go off all the time but I don't see the point if they've interested we'll get chatting on here.
I've recognised and naturally didn't say anything because that would be weird. |

"Sounds like a stalker app. Can’t imagine many women or couples would feel comfortable with that. "
If you could choose whether it was enabled or not that wouldn't be a problem. I'd quite like it, I'm a nosey mare though  |

Strava has a function like this and to be honest it's as creepy as fuck. And that's on a site for runners and cyclists so fuck knows what it would be like on here |

Awful is the word you are looking for. Can you imagine how some with stalkerish tendencies may behave?! |

"The "who's near " lets you know you are close to someone, but I doubt if Admin would put the distance that close"
I’m not 100% sure of the accuracy of that. I’ve seen people who are saying that they’re within 1/4 of a mile when I know there’s no one else around. |

He didn't but it would certainly enable those who get a kick out of hassling people the ability to. Terrible idea but doubt it would be implimented. |
