I think this combination is a great idea. Thanks guys. I'll rework some stuff to make this possible. I really appreciate all the suggestions that have been made over the past 24 hours. I thought only a few people where going to sign up and already 130 have submitted their user names. Also based upon the suggestions, I'm going to add a location based forum, as well as rework the interface to show the selected user's information in a pop up bubble, with a link to the state list instead of instantly redirecting people. Thanks, again for the suggestions and please feel free to keep them coming.
There might be a bit of a problem though: there's no easy way to enumerate user IDs except by crawling the threads. Maybe for simplicity we should still have to add our usernames to HackrTrackr if we want to be included.
