The 'distance from' calculator on peoples profiles is never right, what's the point in it being there?
I was talking to someone in the chat room, looked at their profile... ah 50 miles away, thats cool, i'll check google maps to see exactly where this place is, oh its actually 100 miles away.
Its only a minor irritation, but, there you go...
erm pointless thread is pointless
sorry to waste your time
I've noticed that, but also some people give false post codes for privacy reasons too.

Yup... cause apparently Fife is 12 miles from me... perhaps if you swim the Forth it is! :giggle:

Oh now that so smacks of a northern dialect Jimmy nail like (that is Northern isn't it?) I dont know I've never been brave enough to travel up that far :shock: wink
I do believe (Assuming the profile post codes are assumed correct) that the distance calculator is "As the crow flies".
The actual "route" distance would be to add half the listed distance.
For example, if MissRightNow were listed as being 20 miles from me, then adding half would suggest she is really 30 miles from me.
See if this is closer ;)
