The concern's probably that in order for location tracking to not give you their exact home location, they'd have to drive a good distance away from their home or something before allowing it once. That doesn't seem less difficult than searching for the city from the comfort of their home.

Keep in mind the privacy concerns of the HN are significantly higher than for normal people. It might not be much of an issue at all.

That said, one thing that is useful with being able to select a city is that it would allow me to browse my home city when I'm abroad, or look for people to play with while I'm traveling.

Tinder offers this as a premium feature.

IMO you’re losing more people due to the location requirement than you are gaining a bad rap from scammers/spammers. I just went through the exact experience of the above poster, I blanket deny loc tracking.

Then support both?
