  1. It's not snowing but there's quite some snow already. It's not too bad. :)

  2. Link for the lazy ones: http://qchat.rizon.net/?channels=detectiveconan&uio=d4
  3. The verdict was given. I hope it won't happen again. I'm glad you decided to stick around! You actually have a good reputation here (15 points as of this writing). :P

    That means you have a positive place in this community which is great. So, I hope you keep having fun and helping our nice DC-flavored community flourish. :)

  4. I think Rizon remains one of the better IRC servers out there. Efnet does not provide nickname registration, freenode is more oriented towards "projects collaboration" and DALnet does not provide a web-based client. I also just gave it a try and the channel #detectiveconan is available on Rizon. I already registered my nickname (Maurice). Moreover, it does provide a customizable web-based client so I'll be sure to integrate it to the site in the near future.
  5. Alright, here's an official statement regarding the incident that occured on Sunday. We normally wouldn't make such a statement, that describes the situation, who's involved and what actions we took but since the story seems to have had some (small) impact within the community, we found it best to talk about it here for public awareness (and return to "normalness"). Regarding the facts, I'll go straight to the point. Let's just say that Detective Gin misused the forum's title feature by changing his title to "Vice President of DCW" then used it to brag to many other forumers about powers and privileges he had on those forums. CarpetCrawler intervened and challenged him then eventually asked him to remove his title. There's also been some altercations between DG and some other user. But in the end, since these weren't terribly offensive incidents (for example, he didn't use that title to cheat other users into revealing sensitive information), we've decided to settle the case with some warning increase under the charges: "impersonation and improper conduct towards another member". That's it. Case Closed! (somehow interesting to be able to place those two words into the perfect context, isn't it? ) Anyway, I have nothing more to say about this case. Things happen. We solve them then move on. It's already in the past now. So, let's now go back to enjoying the world of DC, shall we?
  6. Salut Kazu! Bienvenue à DCW! Il y a vraiment des gens de tous les horizons qui viennent ici, donc tu n'auras pas de mal à te sentir comme chez toi! Et faut pas t'inquiéter, ton anglais est vraiment bon! Les gens n'auront aucun mal à te comprendre. I believe I've come across your site a while back. Very informative with tons of nice articles. When did you create it btw? (there's so much information in it) If you have any questions or anything, don't hesitate to ask (in English or French ). P.S: How's living in Japan btw? And Osaka must be a pretty nice city, isn't it? (at least from what I recall in episodes featuring Heiji and Kazuha there haha).
  7. Good point Kazu. I believe I got it from some website and I should really have given the source (like I normally do -- it's odd I forgot about this one). But like you said, it might not have been a reliable source cause there doesn't seem to be a source right now that points to those facts. I believe it's best to remove those info details for now. P.S: Ton anglais est vraiment bon! Et ça fait plaisir de voir d'autres francophones dans le coin.
  8. That's very nice of you btw to help people out with their writing. Hopefully, it'll make them wanna write more! :D

    And I'm doing good! I'm a bit tired lately though. And it's really cold here right now! :o

    Where do you live btw?

  9. Sure. Just use the tags and add your citation in between them. Then make sure at the end of the page that you add:

    == References ==

    I suggest you edit another page that has references already and use that as an example. :)

  10. Yeah, sorry for the delay. The discussion is ongoing right now (looks like both CC and me are busy today). Hopefully, we'll have everything settled soon.

  11. Happy belated birthday! :D

    And belated welcome to DCW! :3

    I hope you're enjoying yourself here!

  12. Just letting you know that I'm reviewing your statement. Thanks for replying btw. :)

  13. Haha, thanks for the support! <3

    Your About Me is already better now. :)

  14. What happened to your About Me? :/

  15. Haha, that would explain why she has such an awesome reputation here! :D

    How are you btw? Still enjoying writing (and reading) fanfics? :)

  16. Basically each of your posts has a "+" button on the bottom right corner which other members can click on. This shows that they like, support, appreciate or approve what you posted. Doing so will boost up your reputation points. To sum up, the more your posts are valuable or helpful, the more reputation points you get. Seems like you now have a pretty good reputation here. Congrats! :)

  17. I learned about the situation a couple hours ago and there's currently a discussion going on about this. I'm waiting for Detective Gin's side of the story before saying anything. But I wouldn't say it is a major issue or anything. The situation only concerns one member, and it is NOT a war between many members like people seem to imply. There's absolutely no need to overreact. So, please, everyone just relax and stay calm until everything gets settled. Thank you!
  18. Uh, what happened exactly? o_o

  19. And that's right, an agent must never give up! :P

  20. Wow, why would you even think you'd be too annoying here?! :o I mean, just check your reputation points! With 45, you're our most "reputable" user here lol! That means people like you. That should tell you enough. :P

  21. You want to leave DCW? Why?? :((

  22. Hello there! Welcome to DCW! I don't know you personally but your reputation seems to precede you (from what everybody's saying, you seem pretty "awesome" ). I hope we'll get to chat a bit and that you enjoy your time here!
  23. Yeah, I am aware of this issue. It's weird cause for many many months, we barely had any spam (if not at all). We do have a tough captcha on the registration page so it's kind of odd they seem to be able to pass so easily through the security measures in place. We noticed however that some posts seem to be written by actual users (and not bots), like people trying to promote their websites (it's a classic internet marketing scheme to attract visitors). Since we're pretty well ranked on google, such people are happy to target popular sites like this one. I'll see what can be done to counter those attacks. Removed. Edit: I just changed the captcha to a locally generated one with trickier backgrounds and colors. I hope it'll do the trick!
