I know that there is the twitter thread for people to befriend each other keep each other going etc. I figured for anyone that has not already done so should definitely do this, but we should probably do the same thing for iKnow as well.

Being able to see each others progress, keep each other accountable is a great motivating factor for me, I hope it will be for others as well.
I have already sent friend requests to a few users on these forums, anyone else who is interested in this, go ahead and post in this thread and add everyone in it starting with me I guess

Dustin_Calgary just like here ^^

I'm playadom on there too. I recently started experimenting with iKnow.

Alright with Playadom and I that's 2!

anyone else interested?

I added Nukemarine as well ^^ ( up tohim to partake in this though of course )

Hashirya <---

Oh, I've no problem. I'm pulling back a lot on iKnow since the recent Anki updates though.

I completely, absolutely, totally refuse to be friends with anyone on iKnow.

*checks iKnow friends list*

Danggit!

私は　”yukkuri_kame”　です．ハじめまして。よろしくお願いします。Can anybody proofread that？

Just got to iknow for the first time yesterday.

I think I've added most of the people from here to my iknow friends list I use the same name there Tibul

Due to a stupid ISP issue, iKnow wasn't working for me but now it is. Username = atreya

I use the same name on there too: Cracky. Health issues are kind of holding up my studying but I should be back into the swing of it soon.

Sure, anyone that wants to can add me. Username is the same there: wccrawford

Please note that you're from this forum in the friend request. I often reject people if they add me random and aren't fluent in Japanese.

I go by the name of "hknamida", but I rarely visit iKnow since I've ripped the sentences to Anki. Add me if you wish, but know that it may take some time before I notice.

Just like wccrawford, I would like you to identify yourself as a RevTK member.

(In other words: "I... I guess we can be friends, if you insist... but it's not like I want to. <<;")

Thanks to everyone that responded, it's great to be able to see how others are progressing as well as myself ^^

Of course anyone else is welcome to join, just put revtk in the friend request message ^^

captal there, captal here

lol I didn't mean it like that. I just don't like it when people add me for no reason. Being on this forum is a reason, so that's fine. Honestly, I like tracking the progress of people on here. And people that message me before adding me on iKnow, I add them, too. It's just the 'complete stranger' thing that bothers me.

<<< chochajin there, too.

Although I haven't been around much laltey. Life's busy.

same name on iknow, although I am a very quiet person...

http://www.iknow.co.jp/users/ylime

Feel free to add me, anyone.

I'm wio-dude there also. Feel free to add me if you wish.

I'm Saifo_Mano there, I'm not gonna use it now for japanese cus I'm focusing on RTK, but maybe for advanced english.

How do you type づ in the courses section? I just started and can't complete a lesson because typing zu gets me ず. I have kana layout keyboard and have never tried typing out in romaji before like what seems to be required on iknow.

I think 'du' works, too.

And yes, I requested that they implement touch-typing so a kana keyboard could be used and they said nobody actually uses that, so they weren't going to implement it.

ah, great! Thanks wccrawford. What a pain to get stumped on something so small

It's so frustrating in iknow to be stumped because of the input method. I especially hate it if it is a katakana "engrish" word. I was stuck on ミーティング　for a while. ”thi" works for the "ティ”。For the chisai letters such as the little っ　or ィ　you can type "xtsu" or "xi" This is on a mac, though I think Windows has a similar feature.

Great thread/sticky on the subject of IME:
