You should talk.

Dev, they'll be erased, too.  No reason to post 50 times in a row.  Please stop now!

yeah well, the forums have been slow lately - got to get em somewhere!

[BarbulaM1 38]

Try making an Excel Document or something, but I really don't mind them being here either.

Okay I will finish later. Maybe early in the morning  is 5:30 central okay to finish this up?????

 

PS a Word document might be made..........

 

But I was thinking if this  is the city name database why not keep them here????

What the hell is going on here?   

Dev, can't you just give us a few links to the site you are pulling all this info from?  It would be better than posting all this.  I don't know if you will undertand my hint, so I'll spell it out better.  Post, in one reply, the place you are geting all this info from.  Understood?  I sure do hope so.

Dusk Trooper and the rest of you,  if you see something going on report the thread don't add to the mess.    You aren't showing our slower members that this isn't wanted.  You also know about Dirk edict about spam and the no tolerance policy, right?  Please, please, don't add fuel to the fire people.  Report these posts so we can deal with them. 

Thanks

[dev 47]

Okay may I ask what is wrong here??? I understand that 50 posts in a row is ridiculous but, 15????

 

Why should this be reported?

 

I am just trying to contribute to the community. Why can I not do so?

She....Doesn't bang...

IF you want to make a friggin huge database so badly, talk to one of the admins!  You can make a word file, and then have it uploaded to somewhere, and maybe even have it placed near the name generator or something!  We don't need 50 posts of this type flooding the recent replies- especially if it is from one person!

Should have known better, Dalai.  I just thought someone would notice the recent replies immediately.

Go to http://www.50states.com/  for the list of cities dev mentioned, and the ones that dev didn't get around to doing, thankfully.

Dev, that's all you needed to do.  Just a link.

When in doubt just grin and nod.

No one is saying you can't contribute, but flodding the boards like you did and getting alot of people upset isn't the best way to do it.  Like I said before, a lnk would've worked alot better.  If you wanted to make a database all by yourself all you needed to do was make a word document and send it to us.  We would've found a nice place to put it. 

[oldfart 12]

I say we should slap all them names together and throw 'em up on the Omnibus. Or in the Downloads section, perhaps. Somewhere...

A thread in a Simtropolis forums is not the best, nor the most efficient way, to present a database, dev. I think you understand that. 

 

Why, I have an account at a great webhost, and I am able to easily create a new table in my REAL 'database' (MySQL) for the names.

 

ID  |  Name  |  Location  |  Submitter  |  Date  |  Misc.

      |             |                  |                  |           |       

 

 

It will be effortless for all parties, and should be much more efficient. But before I start I have to make sure that it will be of use.

 

How about it guys?

How did this thread go from names to this?

Dude, that was funny, LOL! But you are right about the situation, that is all I have to say!

Many of them are from here, my 2nd region Pilipolis- (have a look at this thread in experiments section https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/view.asp?topicID=49610  )
Personally, I think city names in English tends to be crappy. So,  I often go for Greek, Latin, Japanese, Chinese, Russian and French. 
Some of the city names that are not in Pilipolis are
Lazure Utopia
Central Megapolis NE, SE, SW, NW
The Flatland
Helium Hills
Agrodrome Zero
Agrodrome One --- up to Agrodrome Four
South Pilipolis
Magna Envisage Project
Binomial Extension
Chinmoku no Gake (

If you need to find names to your cities, go to this site:

http://www.calle.com/world

They have catalogued millions of real life city names from around the world!

[vidioman 21]

Here are some city names. I don't know if I posted these or not...

 

Canadian cities

American Cities

International Cities

[christhebull 1]

Quefferton was one of the first cities I built.

 

Towns and villages near where I live:

 

Guildford

Bramley

Woking

Camberley

Elstead

Milford

Tilford

Farnham

Witley

Haselmere

Cranleigh

Rudgwick

Worplesdon

Shalford

Chilworth

Shere

Dunsfold

Godalming

Hascombe

There are tons of others, though.

 

Other stuff to name things after:

 

Loseley (Loseley House is nearby statley home)

Lammas (Lammas Lands are boggy flood plains in Godalming)

Wey (River Wey)

Charterhouse (School)

Broadwater, Rodborough, Glebelands, Meadrow* (more schools, there's also Royal Grammer School, locals call it RGS, and some other schools that you can't really name stuff after, like King Edward's, or St Edmond's, etc)

 

*That's what locals call Godalming Junior, after the road it's on.

 

If I want a city name, I mix & match, just like I may call a ficticious person Daniel Simmons if I know David Jackson and Sarah Simmons.

I know you're trying to be helpful but the last post in this thread was 1 and a half years ago and quite a lot of the people who have posted in this thread don't visit Simtropolis anymore.

[Voar Tok 4]

I agree with sim1234, and if anyone wants more ideas for their city names, then you can download the Landscape Designer from the STEX.  Although all of the names are of American cities, it has a list of 24,000 of them.

My beloved ones:

Leyton, Blackmoor, Meithered, Vatharwell, Eestileine, Fjellbekk, Amirbrujk, Hernseem, Askjkull... and many more
