Where did all the Canadian dragonkin go?
« on: August 09, 2009, 06:22:46 PM »

I was looking at our member map ( http://www.draconity.org/index.php?action=googlemap ) and find it odd that only myself and Ravtrag are the only two pins in all of Canada. I KNOW there were a lot more other Canadian dragonkin, particuarly in Ontario, Alberta, and B.C. Where did all of you go? Did your pins vanish?

If you're a Canadian, please take a look at the member map and make sure you're on there or even post here stating your general area. Those of you elsewhere, you might want to check your pins too.

I myself live in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.

I know of at least three others. Some people don't put themselves on the map, others are not here but rather at one of the several other communities similar to this one, but then there's the thousands of otherkin who (for one reason or another) aren't part of any of those communities at all. As far as I know there aren't demographics out on the percentage of a country's citizens have otherkin beliefs, so it's a pretty hard question to answer. :P

Well, I sure think they are out there somewhere. Although, I don't know where they are in Cyberspace.

The percentage of otherkin should be roughly the same all over the world, I think.

My point is that there used to be a lot of pins of people in this forum that are in Canada. Either their pins vanished from the upgrade, they removed them, they left the forums, or somehow the whole lot moved away O.o

I'm afraid I cannot say. It's to be a mystery for now.

Hmm.  Yeah, it seemed like there were more.

Well, If I crossed the lake I'd be in Canada.  :laugh:

So you live up in the most northern parts of the States? What state in that case?

That would be the great state of Michigan. There are several others that it could have been though. The border with Canada is very long, after all.

It's not just the Canadian pins that seem to have vanished. I know of at least four here in the States that have. I know alot of people don't have a pin on the member map. I'm wondering how many people know where to find it?

Maybe we should tell here and have them put their pins up?

Don't forget, some simply aren't willing to put a pin on their location.  Anonymity and all that.

True my friend. Some aren't willing, some are. I am, as clearly can be seen. I'm proud of broadcasting where I live, so others can find me if they would happen to be in the area.

There is something wrong with the member mod. I just pinned myself, went back to the map, and nothing had changed. Several dozen people are listed as being pinned, but all that shows up on this computer is about half a dozen people in Australia.
