I've debated with myself whether or not to put my location on the map and I've finally decided to not mark down where I live. I have a few reasons, but I think Stone pointed all of them out. He's telling the truth, it's not safe. I also didn't sign 'cause I told my parents I wouldn't say where I lived...

Michigan of course. Who doesn't love its poor economy either?
Besides, if someone wants to find out where I live, break in, steal, and sexually harass me like criminals do, they can always keep in mind that we use ADT Protection systems, 2-level codes on front and back doors, and my father has the best hobby of being a licensed firearms dealer, so I'm happy with that.
edit: lol... I bet I got the best lawn to cut- all 9 acres of it.

You can just put the marker on a random place in your state or even your country. Where I live, outside Atlanta there is 5.1 Million people. They don't have good chances at finding me or really anyone else.
You don't have to put your exact location, you can be as general as you want.

Well, if you don't want to put your name on there, then you don't need to.
But really, who's going to look at a community map on the internet, then drive 3-5 hours to the marker nearest to them to go kill somebody? It probably won't happen unless that particular person gets really, really upset at someone.

Stone Paw, If it's not your real name or your general location you should be fine.

Sorry Stone, I think your kind of worrying a little too much...

I signed!  Whoo! I just got the city I live in, I'm not going to expose exactly where I live, though I DID find my house, that was fun.
Oh by the way, what format would I use if I made my own to post on a site like DeviantArt? I gives me three or so.

There's only 6 of us in the Uk so far. Nobody near me I can see. XP
And on the whole safety issue I didn't actually even zoom in to my village, I just put it where I roughly lived. Now I'm in the middle of deserted field.
