As the title suggests, for some reason the small flag is saying that I'm German when I'm from the UK and posting in the UK. Any way of changing this back please?

It's the Belgium flag for me, so maybe you're working your way closer. You can change your location in the Profile editor, under where you choose your avatar.

The best way of getting your flag location set to another country is to PM a moderator and we will sort it. I have set your location to the UK now but it will take a while to stick and you will have to ask a mod to change it again if you move.

Unfortunately that does not work with the location flags as they are done through an auto detecting system, only mods and admins can change users flags. Hilariously we cannot set our own though, I am actually in the UK and my flag has constantly shown me as being in the US since I moved here a month ago and I cannot change it.

Cheers!

Dakka used to show me in different countries depending on which device I was posting from. My computer would show me as posting from the US (I live near Cincinnati OH) and my cell phone would show me in Canada...
