Why dropping this one and starting new ones ?! every author complains about scanlators it’s not like you are going to stop doing translation in respect of authors in general , we know very well no author would like to be translated and reposted on illegal sites so i don’t understand just why interrupting this one unless it has been released officially in English ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍

    That's not true. Not every author complains about scanlators because not every one of them is aware they exist (or at least knows where to find them). Especially for the Japanese manga there aren't quite as many that are officially available in english compared to korean webtoons so the chances that there are overseas fans of their work is not as likely. On the credit page of chapter 27, the group says the author is concerned about foreign translators, meaning they are aware that some exist and know where to contact them. Knowing where to contact them means they can keep an eye on whether their work is being translated against their wishes despite the warning. If they see that it is, they might completely stop writing the manga at all so even if you wanted to buy it you can't. That is why they're stopping. There's also the fact that authors won't hesitate to expose groups/websites that are uploading/translating their works without permission (again, once they are aware), so if the group decides to continue it makes them look bad and less creditable. If they're doing all this work for free and it only makes them look bad, why would they continue? How does it benefit the scanlation group? Why would they risk the future of the entire series just for a handful of ungrateful fans who probably aren't even reading it on the group's site (or wherever they decided to post it)?

    Stupid of me thinking they was dropping bc they were feeling bad for the author discovering about her work being reposted , that’s why I said we know no author would like to be illegally translated lol
    Ehm “ungrateful fan” well you are on mangago as well and it’s was Clear I didn’t think the reason was the fear to be forced to close their scan group by the author (maybe bc mostly all Korean authors know their works are on illegal sites and they could do nothing about it, their webtoon are still being posted here )
    Anyway I hope someone will pink up this one in the future or even better this manga will be translated offfcially in English so I will buy the others chapters ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍

    Maybe my saying not true gave off the impression of COMPLETELY not true, which is not what I meant. That is certainly a possibility that they could have stopped because they felt bad, but I highly doubt that is a common reason because if it was then why would they continue activities with other series? What makes those other series less likely for the author to find out? What makes those other series less entitled to the guilt? It's more likely that they are stopping because the author already found out (like this one) and gave warnings rather than feeling bad because, as you said, no author would like their works illegally translated and are willing to go great measures to make it stop.

    Indeed I use this site sometimes as well but I'm not complaining that the group stopped translating am I? I am complaining about the people who complain about the group stopping. The group wants to stop? That's unfortunate but it's up to them what they want or don't want to do. Regardless of the decision I understand and will accept it. If you're gonna get something for free you either suck it up and take what's given to you or move on.

    If someone picks it up good for us I guess. I found it on pixiv comic so I've gone there to continue this series. Here's the author's twitter in case you want to keep up with the series in real time and be the first to know if a licensed version comes out https://twitter.com/minamoto4696
