I don't know about the cities listing from the provinces. Maybe I will check them later, although my knowledge there is not nearly as good as my knowledge about my home city :D

[Japo]

A lot of people think that the current scheme and requiring this was a bad idea to begin with?

Ayway I'll check Spain later if you want.

[Dave]

A lot of people think that the current scheme and requiring this was a bad idea to begin with?

We can always ask to disable the obligatory requirement.
Once done here, we will send them everything.

[El Quia]

I think it shouldn't be obligatory. But it is sure nice to know from where is everyone from :D I think that those that see that everybody shows it's hometown on the site will feel compelled to share, too. I know that I did :D

[Japo]

We can always ask to disable the obligatory requirement.
Once done here, we will send them everything.
But I don't know if trying to have a database of every city on Earth is feasible or recommendable. Users could type in their location manually, like in almost every other forum. That way we would also avoid orthography wars.

[Dave]

I guess this system was made to allow filters into members page:
http://www.abandonia.com/en/members

[Japo]

Still it would be easy to keep a database of countries--which seems the only location filter avialable anyway--, towns are too much to keep track of, and still lots of people will live in a town that's not on the list, no matter how big we make it.

[Lulu_Jane]

Thailand.

It's a big list, brace yourself.

[BranjoHello]

Serbia and Montenegro are ok, they just need to be separated. :)

[Luchsen]

If they do something, they will use an existing list/database. They can't spend their time typing geographical names.

Anyway, the thread was just idly floating there, so I moved it in the Trash Can. No offence intended.

[Dave]

Ok, np ;)
