That may have been the longest comment I've ever.read...
But I agree (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
What?!!!! That’s the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard! Wow now that’s lame of them!
they fucking think they own the manga they scanlate but on their FAQ they have this
Q: The “X” group is doing the “Y” project.
A: Well, thanks for the notice, but if we like the project, we’ll do it anyway.
FUCKING HYPOCRITES
I am with you on this. It's fine if mangago taking down aallllll of their chapters update and I'll patiently wait for Lone Wolf Scans
why not up the conversation between lone woof scans and shinkirou scans.. the way u guys talking is like.. Shinkirou scans . SAID SOMETHING NASTY... so i really wanna know what is it??
Yup agreed
It's clear they are aware of what is happening on mangago, so it's really not necessary for me to create a discord only for that. In fact, it would actually be worse, as it would seem like I am trying to harass them on a group they have for their friends/fans, and that's not what I am trying to do at all.
It just makes me upset to see how so many scan groups are acting like publishers, and trying to exclude other smaller groups from the manga community. This is not the first time I've seen this happening (small groups giving notice they are abandoning a project because a bigger group has claimed it and doesn't "allow" them to continue). It gets a little bit too close to bullying, and since I've being bullied before, I may have taken this more personally than I should.
But my opinion remains. It's ok if you didn't want to share your work here, but then someone else comes and shares theirs (using their own scans and translations), you suddenly jumping up and saying "hey you can't do that, imma nullify your entire project by posting my old translations here" is just.... plain wrong.
just a question.. im also own my own scans group which is too new and too small .. if compare to others...
but my opinion is .. LWS just need to scans other project and keep going do what they want. instead of deleted their scans group..
as we all can see, they got their own fans. so why bother bout being bulled by other scans? ..
yes i did once having the similar circumstance and its from a very big team ..
talk to em nicely.. said clearly bout what u want.. they will accept it .. they not act like a publisher. isnt it not nice.. scans it twice.. yes SS wrong in first place when they decided not to publish it as public.
but u can counter em like.. u r not TAKING any of their hardwork . u buy ur own raws , u get u own tl by urself and etc .. if they still not agreed with it.. do another project then..
there is bout more than 1000 series hasnt been scans... so why bother. show it to em .. that LWS is not easy to get bully...
what i am comment before is based on What i know...
if any of LWS read this .. just do whatever u wanna do .. go to scans sheet. update there. if someone is bout to steal it . show to em that u already announce it there... so no one can take it from u ... <3 just my two cents..
Honestly? I'd rather wait for months for the Lone Wolf Scan translations instead of getting all the chapter at once from another scan group which seems to think they have the exvludive right to this project.
I can completely understand if Shinkirou Scan doesn't want to upload their work on illegal reading platforms; it's comprehensible that they set a rule about uploading their translation only in their platform. A lot of scan groups do that, and since it's their (illegal) work, they are not in the least wrong. What is baffling is how they are acting like other groups somehow OWN them respect by either asking for permission or not working at all on their past translations, even thought these groups use personal scans, time, and effort. This project, as they said in the disclaimer, has been completed two years ago - and not once uploaded here. Lone Wolf (and any other groups) owns you guys nothing.
I can accept people here preaching about how all illegal uploaders/translations are bad (since it takes away money and exposure from the creators), but someone who already operates illegally trying to imply that another group is somehow MORE illegal and wrong than they are just makes my blood boil
