CarpetCrawler Posted May 11, 2009 Report Posted May 11, 2009 Hello there! My name is Josh, otherwise known as CarpetCrawler. I'm a 19 year old college student that has loved Detective Conan for over five years now. I got hooked by watching the English dub, Case Closed on Cartoon Network's "Adult Swim" block. My first ever episode was "Wedding Day Blues!" I watch new episodes as they come out on DVD, here, because I'd like to watch the show in order, and I am a fan of the English dub, something I can't say about most other anime! Either way, I have seen the Japanese, subbed of course. I will also be contributing to the Detective Conan Wiki in any way I can. Being an experienced user at both the English Wikipedia, as well as the Simple English Wikipedia, I'm sure I can help in some sort of way. My favorite characters: Kogoro Mouri, Meguire, Eri Kisaki, Ran, and of course Conan! Hope to see this forum and website still around in the near future. See you soon!
Maurice Posted May 11, 2009 Report Posted May 11, 2009 Hello Josh! Welcome to DCW! You're the very first member to actually post on the forum (or wiki for that matter). So, that's pretty awesome! ^^ I hope you like it around here! Out of curiosity, how did you find out about the site? It's also pretty cool that you have lots of experience with wiki editing. That'll definitely come in handy, lol. See you around!
CarpetCrawler Posted May 11, 2009 Author Report Posted May 11, 2009 Believe it or not, I've been looking for a Detective Conan forum to join up, since I'm such a big fan of the show. This website came up in a Google Search. And I saw that it was new, so I thought I'd join up, then I saw it had its own Wiki, and I KNEW I'd love it here. Yeah, I've had a lot of Wiki experience, so I should be of some help in areas of the Wiki. I'm guessing you haven't done much promoting of this website, yet?
Maurice Posted May 11, 2009 Report Posted May 11, 2009 Actually, I've been working on it for the past week. I've done a few press releases and submitted it to some social bookmarking sites. We're actually doing quite well for a keyword as competitive as "Detective Conan". Basically last week, we weren't even in the top 1000 results on Google and today, we're in the 60s. 8-) I also have a bit of experience with wikis. It looks like we're gonna have fun here. I just realized that I didn't tell much about myself, heh. Well, I'm Maurice. I'm 26 and I've been watching Detective Conan for, mm, 3 years or so. I'm also a big fan as you've probably noticed by now.
CarpetCrawler Posted May 11, 2009 Author Report Posted May 11, 2009 Ooooh! Can I see those press releases? Excellent to see the site is getting more recognition! Is anyone else involved with the site?
Maurice Posted May 11, 2009 Report Posted May 11, 2009 It's actually the same press release posted on several news sites. One example: - http://www.free-press-release.com/news/ ... 94786.html So far, I'm working alone on the site. Fortunately, it hasn't been too bad so far, maybe because I'm actually a web developer. So, I'm kinda used to the actual process of building sites.
CarpetCrawler Posted May 11, 2009 Author Report Posted May 11, 2009 Cool! I didn't even know such a site existed! And that's awesome! I wanted to be a web developer when I was younger, but I stunk so I didn't bother to keep going. I'm much better at writing than at designing, anyway.
Maurice Posted May 11, 2009 Report Posted May 11, 2009 Oh btw, anyone who registers (on the homepage) automatically becomes a Contributor. What this means is that you can create your own posts and once they get approved, they'll be published on the homepage. I thought it'd be a great way to allow DC fans to report news or simply express their passions in a personal way for everyone to read. So, if you ever feel like writing something about DC, anything at all, feel free to give it a shot.
CarpetCrawler Posted May 11, 2009 Author Report Posted May 11, 2009 You should mention that somewhere on the site, and on this message board. Would you like me to help you recruit members? I can see what I can do.
Maurice Posted May 11, 2009 Report Posted May 11, 2009 Yeah, I was planning to add some kind of banner on the homepage to mention it but never got around to doing it. :/ And sure, recruits would be cool heh. DC fans too I'm taking?
CarpetCrawler Posted May 11, 2009 Author Report Posted May 11, 2009 Of course DC fans! I'll see about Wiki DC fans, though that I'm not as sure of.
CarpetCrawler Posted May 12, 2009 Author Report Posted May 12, 2009 I doubt age, matters, right? I'm just saying. I'll see tonight if I feel better.
Maurice Posted May 14, 2009 Report Posted May 14, 2009 Of course age doesn't matter. Hope you're doing better. Take care!
CarpetCrawler Posted May 17, 2009 Author Report Posted May 17, 2009 I'm doing better now. So far I've got one person who has said they would join up, but I haven't heard anything else from them. I also have another person who says that if we need help with anything on the Wiki, we can ask them. You get any luck?
Maurice Posted May 18, 2009 Report Posted May 18, 2009 That's nice. =) As for me, I just made a Twitter account at dconanworld. I'll see if that can help out.
SUPAMANDA Posted May 30, 2011 Report Posted May 30, 2011 Wow, this is the first introduce yourself topic
IdentityUnknown Posted May 30, 2011 Report Posted May 30, 2011 Wow, this is the first introduce yourself topic *cough* I'm sorry, SUPAMANDA, but please don't randomly revive old topics. It causes quite a bit of confusion and a bit of mess, especially since a lot of members may mistake this as a regular intro and start posting things on it.
CarpetCrawler Posted May 30, 2011 Author Report Posted May 30, 2011 Holy guacamole; where do the years go?
CarpetCrawler Posted May 30, 2011 Author Report Posted May 30, 2011 Into my stomach.. :shock: I lol'd. Bravo, sir.
Kid the Phantom Thief Posted May 30, 2011 Report Posted May 30, 2011 I lol'd. Bravo, sir. Hehe, thanks!! You even gave me a rep..
Kaitou Kid Legendary Thief Posted May 30, 2011 Report Posted May 30, 2011 Oh my this is an old thread... Lols Looking at your title of your thread I feel like creating one that says : KAITOU KID LEGENDARY THIEF - that's my name!!!
Aeyra Posted May 30, 2011 Report Posted May 30, 2011 Those first couple of posts were very interesting. So basically this was the birthplace of actual posting on DCW? Cool! *laughs* Welcome to DCW! XD
