I know that all geo databases have their quirks and anomalies but I am trying to get a feel for the number of incorrectly targetted cities on the db I use (maxmind). A friend of mine gets shown a city that's not even in his country but it seems the adultfriendfinder db targets him not too far from the city he's actually in, as does sexsearch.

I'd be interested to know what other geo dbs there are out there besides maxmind and ip2location.

Let me know if you've been targetted accurately, slightly off base, way off base or just plain not targetted at all.

Thanks ...
