Who is Online? Empty Who is Online?

When clicking the Who is Online link and being taken to the map page to see the push-pins as to where people are located, it appears that certain locations are not recognised.

For instance, I live in South Yorkshire in the north of England, and have my location details set as such in my forum profile, yet when my pushpin appears on the map, it has me as being London, which is a few hundred miles to the south of where I reside.

Why does the board not place me in my correct location on the map?

See image below - map has me in London, but I live in the area highlighted, just outside Sheffield.
