I don't get it, summerize ur points!!
i just partly agree with you. with all of these updates people are forgetting that you should pay for this stuff, and that authors are making a living out of it. i don't know if you've noticed but people are just requesting more and more a.k.a. i'm too young to buy this and somebody give it to me for free. it's like with 'out of control' - we get free chapter every week on lezhin, but somebody just uploaded everything in few days. i found it more disrespectful towards the author than uploading something like royal servant where you have to pay for every chapter. (my personal opinion)
and mangago isn't really like a library. everything's for free for us but admins are illegally making profit out of our visits and ads. it's not all that perfect.
i'm using this site, but people need to be aware of some things.
aka, you nailed it dude *claps* *claps*
(づ￣ ³￣)づ
IKR? Uploader just want to share and see how reader would react, but it's illegal. And webtoon has no book version so there's no other way to get profit than visit the website and purcase it.
Meh they don't care anyway... See ull get more dislike than like.
Ive been reading manga online free for years now but the fact that I get it for free makes me feel sorry for the authors and feel like Im a thief. But why worry whether its illegal or not now like a hypocrite just because its webtoon. Thousands of manga have been uploaded in a lot of sites illegally
Honey, the problem here is that, in my opinion, manga authors can profit from the books they sell in shops or on the internet and other merchandise but in the case of webtoons there are no paper copies or books to sell it is only online which is prone to stealing the content illegally just like the situation here on this site
It doesn't really matter anymore really. I mean sure it seems like a valid concern on this website, but what's on the internet is already on the internet, people are going to find it on other places, whether it's on this site or somewhere else. And even if they can't find it, I think the majority of people wouldn't bother to pay for the story online either way, and instead will just search for something else to read. And those who have payed to read it could still easily upload the manga on tumblr or another site, so I don't think anything will stop it honestly. People can go on and on about "respecting" the artist, but in all honesty all you need is one person to pay to read it, and then everyone else already can get access to it without paying. If people read manga on this website, then why do they still bother buying the physical book? Because a book is a physical object that someone can own, while a webtoon doesn't have that option until it becomes published as a book, which then just makes it the same as manga, and brings me back to the fact that it doesn't really matter. ╮(￣▽￣)╭ That's kind of just how online webtoons work really. So if they get removed on mangago, well that's too bad I guess. ┑(￣Д ￣)┍ I liked several on this site.
Readers who read it for free is as good as those who dont read it if they had to pay for it anyway
That's right, but here there are thousands of users and ur basically encouraging them to read for free which is wrong and unfair and blah blah blah so it is not like they would read it here if there had no other choice but to pay for it ughhh so complicated there is only one solution to this and the stupid site have ruined it
How about closing mangago #kidding :D
No actually there is another solution but it is too late now so let's just forget about it
What happen if mangago is reported and closed? What about all of us keep quiet and enjoy

I would like to hear the solution please.yes, I do feel guilty for reading without paying. Like some people say...the reasons are no card credit and so on..but still...we should do something.:/
Wtf dude!! chill out will ya?? It is not the end of the world or something!! I didn't say we should close/report this site I said there was another solution for the webtoon dilemma which is something this site did months ago then ruined it
mmmmmm!! I think we should held a secret meeting or something , can I private message u? Don't worry we will not report/close this site
What this site did months ago? I don't want mangago closed ._.
So I've seen a lot of debates over uploading webtoons onto mangago and how it detracts from the author's profit. There's two sides to it though. In reality, the majority of english manga readers don't pay for any mangas they read. And they wouldn't read them if they had to pay (whether for financial reasons or if they're too young or if they don't have a credit card etc.)
While I understand it takes away from the author's profit if there's free copies - at the same time, it doesn't. Because there will always be some fans who will discover the webtoon only because it was uploaded onto mangago. Then they'll read a few chapters and realize they love it and go pay for more.
But really, it's a give and take. You raise traffic and awareness about your product by giving out samples aka free chapters, to draw people in to the story and then they pay for it. Its the same for make up and Video game demos. Its less controlled yes, but every single manga you ever read that you dont pay for takes away money from an author. Even borrowing a book from a library takes away profit. But mangago does what libraries do - they give people access to books they wouldn't have been exposed to before and then a portion of those people will fall in love with the book and purchase a copy themselves.
So I think people need to take that into consideration when they're complaining about webtoons being uploaded. I mean, it's not like they were intended for english audiences anyways. So our money wasn't really calculated as a part of the expected profit, it's more just bonus.
