Who was your first active commenter on tapastic?

[marygold]

When we all first start out it's pretty easy to remember who likes and who comments, since there are so few and we really look foreword to them. On many "create stuff" sites I've been on there has always been this one person who would like every update and give a meaningful comment. Sometimes that person won't be able to stick around as time passes, but he or she was my big boost in hard times and I am so thankful. That person has always been encouraging and their support means so much to me!

I am here today to thank Likuro for supporting my comic on Tapastic even though it started out meager without much plot going on and events moving slowly. Your comments always made me smile. Check out Likuro's comic Twins Agony, it's a really interesting psychological/horror comic!

@jasondeano o.e wow. Sorry to hear that

I don't remember who my first commenter when I became active online. I remember it was about 8ish years ago when I first joined dA. I don't remember their name, and I'm pretty sure they've forgotten about me haha XD

But I think my first active commenter here on Tapastic is Paul Rose. He always comments and participates in livestreams, timelapse vids, or fun little events I do for the characters of my series. Now that my comic has been around for a while, I'm recognizing more and more people who are becoming active commenters/supporters, but I believe I can safely say Paul Rose was the first :') I'm always grateful for the support my series gets <3

My first active commenter was Leandrawwz, who makes Dreamers Only (you should check out her comic BTW, it's so cute and cool! XD)
I had commented on her series how much I liked it and how I look up to her as an artist - I kinda did this, at the time, feeling like creators on Tapastic were some far-away celebrities, like this was the equivalent to sending fan-mail to a Jonas brother. When she answered me, thanking me, and even mentioning how she'd seen my series and liked it... I was so shocked!!!
But since then, she and I both read each others comics, and we comment on almost every update XD It's so cool that the first person that I really got along with on Tapastic was someone I'm such a huge fan of!!

Mine would be @gnekomikero and @blacknwhiteeagle100 they are so awesome and I love them XD

[Wandercreature]

Definitely @shauniredfearn and @shaneoid77 - they're the best, and I hope to see others before long.

[shaneoid77]

@Wandercreature Superbia is amazing I'm a total fan!

[marygold]

Nice to see you kept an on going relationship 😊 my first commenters usually drift off after a few months

[Kirstin]

Still waiting for the first commenters here lol, but my first "loyal" fanboys were on YouTube and were borderline creepy...

On a side note, when did you guys start getting comments here?

[indagold]

One or two comments but none active ones....

As for my comics on other sites I've had some active commenters, although I feel 3 or 4 them just wanted to ship the characters. Stopped commenting once they realized I was actually writing a story that didn't have certain characters as the main focus. Only when the charaters showed up, then that's when they commented. Hmmm...

[WakaXO]

Still waiting for the first commenters here lol,

Same here, though a few friends of mine actively comment/talk to me about my comic IRL

[marygold]

@sketchedink my first comments appeared on updates where something actually began to happen. In terms of actually when...that would be a few months in from when o started
@indagold there are some readers like that :/ but some also drop off if they don't get replies. Gotta make sure you reply, otherwise readers will feel like they're talking to a wall! Glad to hear that your story's going in depth tho
@WakaXO wow. I don't even have enough courage to tell my friends that I'm drawing a comic. Too embarrassing!

[WakaXO]

@marygold I have only told a few people. It's actually thanks to my bestie that I am even making my comic, she is making a comic too and has been very supportive. 😆

[NickRowler]

I'm too new to have any of that.

I did have someone on DA but one day they just disappeared.

I also knew some people IRL who would post on my DA, there was one person who I think was trying to "hit on" me...but when they realized my online persona was male instead of female, they backed the hell off. (They were also quite rude and was bothered that my brother was black).

[indagold]

I reply to all my comments...I'm very open to my readers but I know damn well they came for certain characters. It wasn't a secret. Not to mention one even wanted me to ship underage characters with their parental figures... ewww... I hope I don't get that again.

[marygold]

@indagold wait wut oh my god I'm so sorry .v. Ergh

[mappypaint]

My first active commenter on Tapastic is SKy Clemens. He's the first tapastic subscriber that gave me a fan art for my comic. ^u^

[TomSawyer]

Good question
@Koffyhouse was my first commenter

But I'd say Drwme was my most consistent commenter

[avalonmao]

Thank you so much! You were one of my first commentors too!!

[demthorshie]

I had to go back and look this up because I couldn't remember who my first active commenter was. He went by the name of @Warpedwenger. He's actually an old friend of mine from years ago, but I don't think he comes to Tap anymore. He has a comic series still up on the site though.
