Flag/country in Profile

by **ajhleix** on Mon Apr 21, 2008 1:11 pm

Not a biggie.. but..

When i set up my profile I must have chosen the US as where I am from as the US flag shows against my name (at least it does when I look at scoreboard). Now I have nothing against the US, however, I am from Ireland and although living in Canada, I've been trying to change flag for some time now with no success. I've gone through control panal and all the options but there doesn't seem to be one that allows you to change the country you are from after you have set up your account?

Thanks in advance for any help provided!

the flag isnt an option
it is wherever your ip is located

I had the british flag for ages but it changed eventually but still i'd like a munster flag introduced
"Irish by birth Munster by the grace of god"

Thanks! Strange that it shows as US as I am alive and well in Toronto, Canada.

hmmm not sure I belive you on that IP thing, Am in the middle of the north sea on an oil rig and mine got US flag too.
I not sure if I got British flag when am home, but the internet goes from aberdeen in the UK so no reason why I would have an American IP.

Does your provider has an IP range registered in the USA maybe? or possibly you are browsing through a proxy. There are a number of reasons that the flage will not show correctly.

I played with someone in the UK who had an EU flag one day and a Union Jack the next, and he could think of no reason why this would be, as he didn't move or change anything. I thought that was really strange.
