I need to create about 1000 users, with random (but normal looking names not "293dsaf81s234" but "Blue Air" (can be random dictionary words)). And I need to generate topics and posts, and many others things. Does anybody know a good way on how to generate dummy content in PHP? What would be the good approach?
