If we were talking in person, and I asked you where you were from, it would be because we are both in the same location and I understood that you did not originate from our present location. The fact that I am here in the United Kingdom and you could be anywhere makes 'where you are from' where you are-coming-from, from you to me. Unless I had prior context that implied where you are is not where you originated. But you knew what I was saying anyway.
Moreover, the way you presented your post sounded like you were posting facts that I was unaware of. I'm glad we've established that it is your opinion that the flag system as a feature was intended for self-expression. As a staff member, I am telling you that it isn't.

Before I say anything else, I don't even think it should be changed, although I don't think it shouldn't either. I get the purpose of it, it just seems unnecessary in a game such as Graal, which is weird, considering Graal at first thought seems like the perfect game for having your location shown. Now here we go; this is in-game, which implies that there would be context most of the time. I would probably have already been talking to someone if I ask where they're from, which cannot be correctly shown for everyone since it sets your location.
