Members Names Colur coding to identify state of residence

Im wondering what others thought about colour coding a members profile tab on the members list when they are online to identify the state they reside in? Its very hard to identify where someone lives without actually looking at the profile. I also have a bad memory as well. I tend to look and chat to peopple in the state I live in, but enjoy a chat with anyone but knowing which state they are in helps. When you look at people profiles to find out the home state a few times the profile owner sometimes gets annoyed and block you becasue they think your a pest.. This could be prevented by colour coding the state a person resides in and would make it much easier in searches.

Great idea. I support it. Admin won't - they like us to spend unneccesary time chasing people who don't exist, or are not what we want.
