I did not know that.
Although i dont see why geo locating is so difficult.
There are actively updated databases where one can get the conversions now.
I run a "home made" geo targeting script now. It does nothing except echo results to specific countries. Just something i have been playing with the last few months.
Actually VBulletin has mods that can geotarget now. Several actually.
Again i dont use it as i have no need but its out there. Although i do have country flags associated to ip which effectively is the same thing. And yet to give me a false reading however again its an actively updated database. (paid that one actually)
Which in my eyes means if some guy from vb.org can code it then i know you can code it for mybb omni.
