I apologize if there is already a General Admin thread. I have noticed that somehow parks, neighbourhoods, and "non-buildings" have for some reason been moved to "Buildings" with zero height and zero storeys because they are not buildings. Why are these things not Infrastructure? Maybe it...

I keep hearing about people concerned about Men in Chicago Men in Tights. What's that about?

Are all the St.Louis priced the same? I went to the one at Cityplace the other night because I had heard the wings were good it seems overpriced. I pay about the same for The Keg and leave full. I had wings and rib combo and there were only about six baby wings. Very good quality though. I...
