How To Search For Members From A Specific Area

[cardine45]

I'm trying to find other members that are near the Kalamazoo/Western Michigan area. I tried a few different ways of searching, but I haven't had any luck with it except finding previous posts they've left. When I do that, I can't find any way to private message them. Am I doing something wrong or is there a way to do this that I'm not finding? Any tips would be appreciated.

I don't know of any way to search using the member's location from their profile.

If you are looking a a post, you can easily send a private message. Move your cursor over the member's name at the top left of the post. A dark triangle will appear to the right of the member's name--click the triangle. A small menu will appear, with the third item being "send message." Click that send a PM. Or, click the first option to open the member's profile. You can send a message from there as well, either a PM or (if the member allows it) an email.

One more thought: If the member has an avatar, you can also open their profile by clicking on their avatar.
