Title: Live Map of Members / Guests
Post by the mysterious johnh on 06/27/12 at 17:52:59

I have built a *LIVE* users map showing current users online.

It has 'Map | Satellite' views as well as 'Street View' by dragging  and placing the yellow icon on a zoomed in section of the map.

Depending on the link you chose, if you click on a marker you will either see the 'Username' or  'Guest'.

Made getting to the map easier by adding a button between 'Donate' and 'Games' called 'Live Map'. Simply click it.  ;)

Done. The map now uses your 'display name'.  :P

For some reason it puts me in San Marcos Tx. instead of Port Aransas. Google does that sometimes even though I keep changing it to Port Aransas. San Marcos is quite a ride from my little island, which is due east of Corpus Christi. 8-)

These type of things are based strictly off of the IP address, and the database that it looks it up from.  Most of them just look to see what ISP location that your IP is leased to, hence the possibility of your town being listed wrong.  Some do dig deeper but those are few and far between.

I haven't dropped by in forever, glad I can still log in. Glad I'm still on the map too. I'd forgotten that I did that. Doing a 400 mile ride Sunday with some local folks from work. I'm going to take time tomorrow to catch up on stuff around the forum. Ride safe. :)

It works off of the IP address given by your ISP for location,  So it can be off depending on where your ISP registers their IP allocations.  Be thankful your not with AOL or depending on when you log on at times it could show you as being on the other side of the country.

Mine is within 12 miles or so of my house. That's pretty close. If anyone is interested, zoom the map in over my name until you can read the  street names. Go north to where you see Deadfall Rd, McQuiston Rd. My place start there and goes north past Brunswick Rd and east to the 2nd pond you see where the road became Dunlop Orphanage Rd. Where it says Lancaster Place is the housing development that used to be our cow pasture. The big triangular pond you see off McQuiston Rd is my fishing/swimming hole, it's really as big as the scale shows, 2 acres.

Cool trick John, thanks.

for some reason it shows me in Ilford, Essex, but I live about 200 miles away, in the small village of CWM,  near Ebbw Vale, Gwent  South Wales , right over to the West .

Is this map still active? I'd like to know if there are any fellow Savage riders in my neck of the woods. I only ask because I clicked the link but I'm nowhere on the map  :'(

Title: Re: Live Map of Members / Guests
Post by verslagen1 on 03/31/15 at 12:14:28

still active as far as I know, but it's not going to be very accurate as it locates you at the isp.

look at the member map in the cafe

Just wondering.  This is the first time I have checked this, and actually looked on the map.  Since I was online (obviously), I checked on myself, and the map had me listed as being in Central, SC, when in actuality, I live in Liberty, SC.  Not far from Central, but not correct.

Can this be changed?

Title: Re: Live Map of Members / Guests
Post by verslagen1 on 02/10/17 at 14:14:07

No, it is the location is of your ISP.

So to change it, change your ISP.

Or use the member map instead.

Title: Re: Live Map of Members / Guests
Post by piedmontbuckeye on 02/11/17 at 06:16:13

That's sort of bizarre, because I am usually using an ISP in Easley, SC, some 20 miles or so from Central, SC, and even a much larger city.  No issue with me though as I was just wondering why.

We have a member map if you want to post your real location.

This map locates you by the ISP center that you connect to the web by.

Fantastic.. it did find me in sweden.. but put me in the middle of a lake!
That lake is probably in the middle of my Zip code?

Just for fun guys.. you should now how much one can get to know by clicking on a swedish internet map!!
One get to know who is registerd living there.. exept those 15 years or younger!
All there cars and motorcycles, there pets, (cats and dogs), (they have to be registred/have a chip)!
For 1-3 dollars I can get to look at there last 3 years tax declaration!
And I can search for free.. who in my area that convicted of crime, but to look at that conviction, I have to pay 1-3 dollars!
In anyway.. just to scare US citicens, we do have this transparency laws.. everything about you is public! One cant hide!
On top of that.. we dont have any trespasing laws.. instead we have "freedom of roam laws", for public and private property/land!
As a biker, I know the rules, no motor veichles in natur, private or public.. exept snowmobiles, on special marked lanes in our northern parts!
