can you tell me why the scan group don't want the manga to be published here?
Several reasons, one is protection. Some authors get angry/upset and have directly contacted and threatened action against translators. They get in trouble, you know. Also, many groups don't want their works uploaded here because this website profits and makes money off their works through the ads on here. Another reason is just simple courtesy. The person uploading these aren't doing it out of kindness to share to people. They know what harm can happen and how much upset it causes, and yet they're still doing it. You may be happy to read these chapters, but I just can't support someone who is doing this out of spite and to taunt translators.
A lot of people read the mangas on here and never ever pay attention to the scanlation groups and real people who are translating these works for them. That kind of information is really easy to find if you just spend a few mins looking for it. So while its easy for some people to get upset and cry it's unfair, demand to be given everything on here where its easy for them to find, people just simply need to know how to Google and read the pages. There's a whole scanlation world and supportive community. I've seen comments on here made by people that imply they don't even realize where these translations are coming from, they think they're official. People have the choice to be the kind of reader that doesn't care about this and thinks they're entitled to read everything..... or make an effort and just simply be respectful.
Yes I would be interested as well
Me too
Yeah, people don't realize how scary legal action can be when it's against you. Not that I have experience in it, but the idea that a company is after you can be pretty daunting. I know of some scanlators who even delete the links to the downloads hours after they make a post because they only want a small number of people to have access to it. They make it open to everyone, but only for a short period of time because they don't want to be sued.
When I started reading manga, it was literally everywhere, which easily gave me the impression that these comics are "free", which they are not. I think many people still have that impression even years after being a reader. And I also agree with you that many people expect chapters to be handed out to them on a silver platter. A lot of people say stuff like, "Why are you being so stingy? You translated this for the readers, right?" They don't even try to think the reasons behind a scanlation team's actions.
I heard that you have to sign up in order to read, but the team is not accepting new members because of these kinds of things happening.
Mangago being shitty as usual. I'm more surprised they keep uploading Lezhin's titles.
It would be helpful if you linked the site or sites that would help our a lot.
If the "Fuck you Readers" at the end of the chapters says anything...
I read this chapter a while ago on mrm, so it's not only mangago.
what websites can I read it on that the scanlators approve of? other than mangago, are there sites you can recommend?
then can you give the link to the original site? so that people can read it from the original scan or at least show support to them.. instead of ranting i think that the least you can do.. of course i know the logic behind the legal action and all that.. but seriously if you don't want to scan and publish it to the public.. how about don't do it in the first place.. don't scan.. or if you they want to do it just simply don't post it.. just share it among their friends.. because if the scan team published it on their blog.. it also means the same.. they also making profit out of the mangaka work.. isn't it?
Wouldn't giving the link do the exact opposite of what OP wants? If the link is revealed too often, then more people will get access to it and fuck things up again. And like you said, this scanlation team is only doing it for a small group of readers to mitigate the damage. Of course, they need to publish it in public because they want to recruit a few people for the team and/or for their reading community. They are not earning money whatsoever on blogs their blogs, but this site is through ads revenue.
Basically, don't question their actions. They do what they do for reasons.
I'm not going to show people step by step how to get to there. People aren't simply even looking lol. I don't know what else to say. Go back and look at the other mangas you read on here.
No, scanlation teams DO NOT make any profit from their works! Only aggregator sites like Mangago, mrm, make profit. Scanaltors spend their own time and many many hours do this all for free.
It's not a big deal, let people do what they want.
whats mrm?
nor mind i figured it out
You stole these and a bunch of other mangas from a translator who specifically did not want to release these on here and has begged you to stop. You're only doing this out of spite, not to share to everyone out of kindness. That's an ugly motivation and says a lot about you. In the end, you're only screwing yourself and everyone else. They're going to cover every page with the ugliest watermark.
