Ok. Do you know what. I'm thinking to close this CJ. Why? So much pictures in three pages. At least 100 pictures and 100 picture comment. Latest update was 18 picture. What I get? 4 comments. And that update is has been around for long. And my work is good. Really good. And still people comment crap CJ's, which has one picture per update and no comments to picture or those CJ focus more to other stuff like airplanes or cars. Still, I have reply you NICELY, which is very unusal from me.

I will give you one or two updates focusing of that travel guide. Now this will become interactive CJ, so you can tell me some words or phrases relating to traveling and tourism that I can make better dictionary. I have allready made some, but not showing them because I'll release whole book. English to Finnish.

Ok I'm done. Time to reply.

Geez! That's extremely egotistical! No wonder few people want to comment! I've been noticing you posting really rude comments on other people's CJs and when you are confronted you say

'It's constructive critism.' It really turns people off from posting in your Journal, You need to be polite, kind, and stop posting those dumb threats...Trust me, You will get alot more comments that way. I understand this is your first CJ,  and your work is good, but it's not mind blowing like say Gold Depra or Ensenada, don't expect 15-20 comments for each update. Your CJ is only 10 days old and many people still need to see some more updates before you get more comments per updates. I hope I didn't offend you or your Cj but those are my personal opinions...

COOL CITY GOOD WORK!! CAN'T WAIT FOR MORE!!

[RushHourFreak 1]

Impressive work definetely. Your pedestrian sidewalks and modern downtown are a great showcase. It's hard to find some Maxis' stuff on there Very nice pictures.

You might reconsider about your idea of closing this CJ, give the people more time. One day is perhaps not enough for people to comment.

lol sometimes you have to leave your update for a while and let ppl find it, sometimes you get like 3 comments, and then at other times you get 20, for no apparent reason. its just kinda random like that Anyway, im not sure what Im supposed to do, but if its give you phrases that I would use, I would wnat to know, Where is the Mall????

[Krio 624]

But now for those who don't know (or don't read the page 3), Kissalan Matkailunedistämiskeskus - Kissala's tourist office needs your help. YOUR job is to post some words or pharses relating to travelling and tourism that Kissala's tourist office and it's two workers - Krio and Replymachina 4000 can make better dictionary to YOU. Schulmanator and BlondeTwiggy has allready posted some good examples.

I know what you mean - when first starting it is hard to get comments, especially lately as there are so many running CJ's and more created everyday. Personally, I appreciate the comments, but I didn't start a CJ for comments. I did it to chronicle my latest creation...sort of a scrapbook. The comments should be extra, not expected. A lot of people, like myself, don't comment in the City Journal section much lately, though since I started another CJ, I have been visiting and commenting more...like Simfan34 said: exposure is a good thing; and like ilikehotdogsalot said: positive energy. With that said...

Your pictures are good. But.....there might be too many of them. Many readers are doing so with slow internet connections, and when a page is overloaded with so many pics it takes a long time to load. Couple that with ST's hiccups, and most will hit back and try something else. I say Fight the Hard Fight, keep your CJ open and continue to make good cities, and you will get visitors.

If you built It, They will come.

i agree. maybe not so many pics at once. but still this cj is worthwhile

Replies

Ok. I accidently deleted my earlier reply. But I hate when my CJ is gone to page three, where no one ever goes, after I have done BIG update. That is really, really annoying especially when some one two picture CJ's hang in first page with 200 comments. One two I mean those CJ's, which don't have decent pics or a story. Just "replies" and promises that decent pictures and updates are coming. And when I do my update, only my loyal fans reply. And they shall be rewarded with good rewards like plaza and district names..oh those aren't good rewards. Sorry guys. I send you some old milk via FedEx.

But personal replies with my dålig svenska.

Simfan34: Thank you. When more pages comes, some newcomers won't come to Qaddro, because they don't usually read whole CJ and are afaird to post.

Bother_me: Tack for din kommentaren. Jag tyckar läggä europeiska staderna. Och tack för din gott nact. Nuku sinäkin hyvin.

För alla english users: Thank you for your comments, I like to build european cities and thank you for your "good night". Nuku sinäkin hyvin = Sleep well you too. Or good night to you too.

Schulmanator: Kiitos! Thank you very much! I knew that I can trust you.

ilikehotdogsalot: Yes, I have a big ego. Well usually my negative comments includes constructive critism and I hope to see that more in Qaddro, only frogface and vinthia has posted some. And my CJ isn't "mindblowing", because I don't edit my pictures with photoshop. If we take of photoshopping from Gold Depra, it will become an average CJ. And thank you for this comment, really.

Urbandogg THANK YOU! YOU WILL SEE SOME MORE!

RushHourFreak: I reconsider that closing after few updates. Yes, it's very hard to find Maxis stuff, because I have "banned" residental Maxis and some of commerical. Industry comes mainly from Maxis, because there isn't much good factories etc. prepo's Rosenlew-factory is common sight in my industrial areas. Hah.

BlondeTwiggy: Yes I leave my CJ for updates usually for 1,5 days or even two. And when I got three comment's I become mad. Your "job" is to tell me words and pharses what you use in trips to another place, like that "where is the mall". I translate them to Finnish, e.g your "Where is the Mall?" is "Missä on ostoskeskus / kauppakeskus?"

Krio: Sad.

sanantonio: Yes, I also made this CJ to show those Krio-haters that I can build good cities, but because my ego is bigger than my pe..LEG i wan't those badly. Hah hah. I will reduce amount of pictures to 6 to 12, but then I must do many updates and that is little silly.

jay_allen1978: I reduce the amount of pictures.

Your help with words is still needed. Replymachina 4000 burnt a little when he was trying to came up with good words.

[BlondeTwiggy 43]

lol!! well, if i ask where is the mall(Miss

[Bobbo662 23]

Krio, don't send me "bad milk" - I got one for you "Where are the public restrooms?"

 I enjoy your beautiful Qaddro, don't close it down - keep up with the great job that you are doing!

I don't want the mean kitty coming to get me in my dreams, either  - lol

[Bother_me 0]

hoppas det blir mer updates snart

[jacqulina 162]

my friend when i first started i sometimes had to wait a few days for comments,you have to be patient i push myself to page 3 sometimes by commenting in everyone elses cj but then a kind person will comment in mine and bring it forward again,you are doing fantastic work just keep going.

[Schulmanator 5,787]

Glad to see you are getting some good words for the tourism office. Hang in there-- you have a good reply to view ratio in your CJ, so you are doing well for a pretty new CJ.

[Camaron 1]

Your CJ is good, I see no reason for it to be shut down. I try and comment, but I can only check the CJ section for updates about twice a week at the moment, so please try and bare with me.

Päivitys Ronjasta ja vastaukset

Update from Ronja and replies

But before we start looking NEW pictures from capital Ronja or replies, I start my normal speech now. Oh don't be afarid, I won't complain from anything now (expect my tongue, which still hurt after i bited it three days ago). The tourist guide is coming up good speed, I have just done more pages for the dictionary and tomorrow before I start celebrating my 2nd engagement anniversary with Ms. Krio I will play Kissala to get new pictures from all new old-hotels and some night-pictures. So, next week we should have some tourist guide published. But hello hello, I'm in place called Vertigo with U2 and let's start replying! Oh huraa.

BlondeTwiggy: Hei taas! // Hello again! I also noticed, that I must write some directions etc. Kauppakeskus is usually bigger than ostoskeskus, but in don't matter which one you use, because different areas of Finlands both are used. e.g Helsinki few shop malls are called ostoskeskus, but big malls like Itäkeskus is kauppakeskus.

Bobbo662: Thank you for nice words. That one is good one, I allways forgot restrooms, ATMs and other "small but needed" things. That kitty will become Qaddro's Minister of Police, hah hah.

Bother_me: Tack!

jacqulina: Thank you for your support, maybe I should be more nicer to others..heh. But please come again to check this new update!

Schulmanator: Thank you! Yes, tourism office is getting their work done thanks to everyone and espically you. I would like have better reply ratio though: comments 500 / views 1000, hah hah, but that is just a dream.

Camaron: Kiitos! If you comment twice a week when new updates are ready, thats enough for me. Also when Dirk's warm fuzzy comments, it is good advertising, hah hah.

I'm so tired now, I'm out of Pepsi Max because refrigerator broke few days ago. But now the new pictures from capital Ronja. Ronja is still undeveloped, you can see suburban housing in some places, but is growing good. Maybe after 5 updates she looks like I have planned. But now, pics:

Eteläharjun rautatieasema // Eteläharju Railway Station near southern end of the city.

One of the U-metrostations in the city. I'll replace those grass after surroundings have developed.

Traffic in the Ernonkatu, main street of Ronja. Museum of Dutch Commerence is located in the upper left corner of this picture.

Parliament of Qaddro in the Ernonkatu. Tram line 1 or yellow line is leaving from the Parlamentti Tram Station.

REGAL theater and ministery of Defense behind the parliament. I like those green polish houses.

Tukkimiehen tavaratalo - Tukkimies Department Store. The most expensive department store in Ronja, but also normal people can shop there. Tram line 1 or 4 runs behind it, can't remember which one, because they cross almost same position.

Tukkimiehen tavaratalo from different angle. I hate that dirty grass in the left

Remember that small corner house from Tomorrow-aukio? It grew more! Hah hah. Yes, it looks like Tonkso's version of Piccadilly and I made that in accident. I was in the chat and while batting I created this. ill_tonkso has big influnence in me, hah hah.

Something from ancient Qaddro, from 30's and from new millenium.

That's it folks! More to come in few days. And remember to post those words which I have spoken earlier.

[jacqulina 162]

hi my friend it allways pays to be nice, you have done awesome work and pics yet again,very nice planning,and the details are fantastic

[Cjah 15]

Amazing update and the details are nicely done.I like the parilment and the commerce/subway areas...

great job showing some of the ancient ruins by such a nice skyscraper...good compare contrast....

[Schulmanator 5,787]

Cool! I didn't know there was an ancient Qaddro!

Hmmmm.... Ms. Krio? Are congratulations in order? :-)

[Shanna 1]

Hi Krio my friend! Really amazing update! I'm happy you don't stop this wonderful cj! I can't wait for more!

[HabLeUrG 32]

hey! those pictures are pretty good! keep updating this beauty!

Kissalan matkailunedistämiskeskuksen opas turisteille osa 1

Kissala's tourism office's travellers guide part 1

I shall give personal replies later. Now I release first part of the dictionary. Comment it and add more words to it make it better.

[BlondeTwiggy 43]

I really liked this update! My fave is Tukkimiehen tavaratalo pic, the department store. I hope that is spelled right, lol.   But all the pics of Ronja are good !

edit: updated while i was posting.  hehe, now i know puisto, and kauppakeskus.  lol!!

[Simfan34 11]

Cool!

[Zipme17 18]

how educational

[sc4portugal 10]

WOW i missed a lot, this is very intersting. Something else intersting pineapple in Finnish and Portugese is the same!

[Bobbo662 23]

This has become very educational Krio! Your workmanship on Qaddro is outstanding - it makes ya want to move right in and set up residence

REPLYMANIA

Now I shall reply for all, and thanks to your comments. You can post more travelling-words and suggestions to that guide. I have also one teaser picture from Ronja. Next big update coming soon. Maybe today or in next week.

First I give replies for those comments that came before Traveller's guide:

jacqulina: You speak wise words and thank you for the comment!

Cjah: I also like details and my favorite picture is that ancient-modern-picture.

Schulmanator: Didn't you read the history, heh. Ancient Qaddro got some damage from fierce pandas and tigers and "died". Qaddro got her name from that ancient civilization.

Shanna: Kiitos! I don't see light in the end of the tunnel yet, so Qaddro will continue to end of the ST.

HabLeUrG: Just pretty? Hah hah! Thank you for your comment!

Krio: Nice update!

And now I shall reply those, who commented after guide:

BlondeTwiggy: Kiitos! And pictures will be better in near future. You spelled that right and you will learn more!

Simfan34: Yeah!

Zipme17: Was that sarcasm? But thank you anyway.

sc4portugal: You should pop more often here, because more exciting stuff to come, like elections! Hah hah, really? Now I can go to shop in Portugal and buy pineapple! Hah hah!

Bobbo662: Thank you, thank you. Too much kind words Bobbo. You can move in anytime, in Niittypolku you could go to shop to district which is named after you, thanks to your bats!

lerist: Tack!

Ok, now a teaser from Ronja's darker areas..(which was left out in that update for some odd reason)

Ok, see you later alligators!

[jacqulina 162]

your welcome my friend yes i do try to be helpfull,i love your teaser pic it looks so realistict and its very pretty,excellent work and pic

[CarmineHilton 6]

Nice work and creepy teaser I wouldn't like to live there...
