I know a lot of moderators are telling people to report users with custom locations instead of real places on their profile, but I find it unnecessary, because there really is no need, for it causes no harm.
However it does excite me and alot of other people!!
Is there anyway to achieve this glitch?? Thanks!
As part of our Support Community improvement project, we’re preserving inactive posts that have historical or community value and closing them to new comments. This is one of them!
If this post covers a topic that you’re interested in discussing with the community or requests a feature you’d like to see on Khan Academy, you can try to find an active post about it and add your thoughts (or feel free or create a new post if it doesn’t yet exist in the forum).
Hi yodaMastr,
Thanks posting!
Entering a custom location is technically against the guidelines, since it can be viewed as tampering with security features of the site, which violates our Terms of Service. However, we don't typically remove those custom locations since we've got several other issues to deal with that are more important. But if the location entered is inappropriate, please report it so we can remove it and contact the user.
Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
