I wish there was a way to block scan groups projects from showing.
I see the colored pages and I'm like 'oh yeah, it's them'
My fault, need to actually remember who this girls are.

But we're not paying for this. The scans are free. This is their hobby. Why should they be polite to "fans" who criticize their work even though they don't contribute anything to the production of the scans? It would be understandable if the complaints here were about the actual translations (I've read some scans that looked like they used Google translator) or the quality, but they're about trifling stuff, like color pages and redrawn dicks. And while the OP is correct--if you don't like the way a scan group present its work, don't read it--why deny yourself good stories?
Anyway, I'm off to read more free stuff.

The way you're talking makes me think you're one of the elements of this group because they all use the same argument and 'sound' exactly the same.
Everyone that comes here knows that this is free, that this is illegal, that other people make time to translate and correct pages and yes, we are grateful.
What we - at least I - don't appreciate is the way this group has responded to their 'fans', we also comment - good or bad - on other groups translations and I have never read discussions and arguments like with this group.
I personally don't like the colored pages. They are not part of the original manga, they cut the flow of the story. I have suggested to put them in the end like some kind of bonus pages...
And the argument that you/they all make back is 'if you don't like it don't read it, no one is making you read it' - obviously - I like the manga, and I'll read the manga, but I'd much more rather read the original, not the freaking colored pages that no one asked for, and
the 2nd argument: 'we work so hard and you don't appreciate this free manga that we gave you' like some kind of god that I should venerate.

I've seen the discussions too, I don't think the group was rude to "critics." They just called out readers that called things "shit" and some anonymous person who I think is above started calling people "retards" and "autistic" because they said they liked the coloured pages. So tell both sides of the story, not just what you want people to see.

Lol, no. I'm not part of any scan group. I wish I knew Japanese, but I took Spanish in school--and that's mostly gone now. And I'm not saying that if you don't like it, don't read it. I was just restating what the OP said. My point is that it's free, so just enjoy it for what it is: someone's labor of love made available to the rest of us without cost.
P.S. Did I say that it was free?

So what if it's free?
I really don't get why 'you' only use that argument.
It's free. So? What do you want me to do about it?
Should I thank feverishly? Want me to send gift baskets?
Following that logic, I should thank the people that made mangago since the whole website is free.
And I do enjoy and appreciate what all the groups do. I just don't enjoy the colored pages.

you said you saw other discussions on other stories, I looked....why are you constantly sending bad energy to each forum? Seems all you do is whine? and mask it as an "opinion"..............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................I haven't seen you once talk about the stories and the plot.........

Um, this is a discussion forum for all of us readers to discuss the plot & the story. How we like it or are mad at the fictional characters or whatever.
You're bitchin about stupid shit, this isn't http://www.mangawhine.com....

Stop whining you're too old for that, let me give you a solution to your problem. Here is the pure original version:

Enjoy!

Wao this exploded, I just wish I could block them cause I really don't even want to read their projects based on their whole attitude. That's all I meant, I personally don't like reading anything from them based on my experience. I don't want to even give them views on their projects.
I dislike the way they do their scans with your coloring (subpar and very randomly) and the way they act and I wish I could just avoid everything from them. That's personal preference.
For the group person here: I don't lose anything if you decide to go private, group, but you're hurting other people if you do. You've been super rude to me in the past, so, I'm not reading your shit anyway, no need to hurt those who do and give u your oh so desired attention.

Please stop with your hypocrisy and your fakeness drenched in lies. You have thrown mud by calling our work "shit." Your comments in other forums have been downvoted so much they've been removed because they're so negative and have no basis whatsoever. People that {may} agree with you, can't even support what you say because it's clear you're on a negative vendetta.
You're a bonafide troll. You have nothing better to do but to try to cause mischief and drama. It's sad, because I think you may truly be a lonely individual that acts out just to get attention from strangers.
Which is fine; here's your attention. *pats you on head*
"don't even want to read their projects"------then don't. ヾ(☆▽☆)
views? Hahahahaha...do we get paid on your "views"?? lol, Nope! You give yourself more value than necessary. If anything, mangago thanks you for your views, they get paid for this, we don't. We do this as a hobby; free.
So whether you view it or not, it wont' change anything.
So whether you like it or not, it won't change anything.
Continue to spew your hate and dislike for my group.
٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶

I just wish I could block your whole group's projects.
this comment shows precisely why.
You're just horrible and I don't wish to give your group views.
I gave feedback on your coloring, which stands, mediocre. I'm sorry you cannot handle criticism. It's bad and random, you're just using manga as a coloring book for whatever page you feel like coloring, you talk about standards and quality but there's not even a sequence nor order is just random (mediocre) coloring.
I couldn't care less for downvotes and whatnot, it's obvs more people are gonna be on the side of free stuff. That doesn't make me wrong.
I honestly have nothing more to say.
Also no, I'm not reading your projects. I just need to remember your group's name cause I honest forget. I just remember when I see the random color here and there.

A cashier doesn't desevered to be compared to you and your attitude.
never have I encountered a cashier that acts like she owns the store and every item inside, or a cashier that sees me buying milk and just adds cookies cause 'she's making it better' and then gets all triggered when I tell her I don't want it.
So no yo, cashiers are miles better educated than you. They do their business and don't judge people tastes nor sperg at their clients.

Wtf was utou gonna do? he's not an alpha and cannot protect the omega from being assaulted by other alphas.
I like this cause it understands how the world works, most authors just say 'fuck destiny be with me beta' ignoring that in this world that just doesn't work cause the omega has to suffer a lot from that.
I hope this goes romantic jotou route. He has the protection from the bite but he can still be with the beta.

I honestly feel so important being referred to in the intro page :')
Honestly it is disrespectful to color pages, the author didn't want them color and you're so cocky thinking you're providing an update when you're not.
your coloring as I said before, decent at most. I'm sorry you got super triggered cause no matter how much you complain and bitch and attack me you know I'm right.
Anyone saying the colored pages are OMG SUPERB PIECES OF Art is lying and sucking up cause of the mentality that you need to suck scanlators epenis. This is a fact, I saw some coloring for another project with yellow and green background, wew.... You can't hard shadow to save your life, pretty much all soft shadows and burns.
It's not bad but don't come and defend it like it's the art of our gen cause it's not.
Anyway I just legit laughed at your message.
Like I said, practice your coloring instead of getting triggered, that's gonna be better for you.
Also not trolling, I was giving my opinion and the scanlator and her friends came at me so I just kept at it. I feel they were being the inmature ones but, being on my side means scanlators gonna get triggered and no scans....
fuck this mentality really.

As a 3rd party: I personally thought it looked great. I liked the colored pages as they put emphasis on the scenes. I'd like to point out that what you just did isn't critique, it was harassment, you didn't give any advice and you just said it looks bad. Not sure about any of the past, i'm SPECIFICALLY commenting on what you wrote here. Also, i've argued with plenty of translators, so this is my honest opinion, it's not that "mentality" that you're using to dismiss other peoples' opinions. Here is a comment within the last week where i gave my opinion without "sucking the translators dick": http://www.mangago.zone/home/mangatopic/3388384/
I genuinely just think the arts good.

Honestly this is second part of the whole harassment I've been gone through (cause if you wanna use that word the attacks have gone my way more) by the scan group and whoever wants to suck their imaginary dicks.
I gave a very vague comment at first and they all just came at me, again, I'm sorry they got super triggered cause they obs can see their coloring isn't that good and they're sensitive about it.
I'm giving as much critique on it as I can... should I link tutorials on how to color? or why burn and soft shadows are not good techniques?
I'm getting tired of trying to be as nice as I can with people going at me cause they dislike my opinions and they want to look good to people that need the attention.

Your objectively wrong if you say the pages are good.
you like them, you're grateful and that blinds your judgment.
Ad hominens are not real arguments. The way I speak is irrelevant.
Coloring will forever be disrespectful to artists, mangas are not cómic boobs nor coloring ones, you're not respecting the esthetic.
fake fans, really.

Not paying for work is inherently disrespectful.
You cannot say "objectively wrong," since there is so much that is subjective about art. Some people love Jane Austen and some think she's boring. Some people love the Fauve movement NOW, but many artists thought it was shit when it came out.
When people say they think it's good or they like it, it's subjective, it's not an academic exercise. It's a fan reaction. Since this is a fansite, not an academic discussion of art site, the opinions on whether they like it or not, think it's good or not, are fine in that framework.
And one doesn't have to toss ad hominems to have a discussion. One doesn't have to use metaphors that are insulting to make a point. "Sucking dick" is an insult and intended to demean and that says quite a bit about YOU.

Talks about harassment
And harasses the scanlation group on every comment section
You don’t even know how to respect sb who puts effort,time and money on something for you to read illegally and for free, and here you are playing the victim
If you act like that, it means you’re too young to be on this website, or on internet at all. If you don’t wanna be *harassed* you can stop being so immature and stop making drama on every comment section :/
Yes we’ve already heard your opinions
No,stop playing the victim please it’s really starting to annoy me
They just do it because they enjoy doing it and they’re already doing you a favor, so stop
As an artist who once was a beginner, I find YOU disrespectful and not others
They might not be doing it just to show how perfect their art is, they simply enjoy it
Dude, you’re the one who’s looking for attention by making drama on every comment section
Honestly, internet isn’t the place for you if you’re gonna act like that
You’re not an artist either, so please don’t act like one
If you can’t understand the difference between criticism and making people feel bad because of their art, you’re not even near being an artist and here you’re talking about some bad shading techniques?

Real artists understand it’s not okay to talk lik that about someone’s artwork
Honestly as an artist I can make sure I’d be super insulted if someone talked like that about my art :/ this isn’t constructive criticism, it’s just being rude and immature and doesn’t help any artist at all, despite the fact that they might not be doing it for the sake of showing off their great artistic talents, they might b doing it just for fun!
But you can’t say ‘your art sucks and it’s terrible, change it because I want to’ is super disrespectful towards an artist

Quote: But you can’t say ‘your art sucks and it’s terrible, change it because I want to’ is super disrespectful towards an artist
And arrogant. Who am I to tell someone to change their art. I can like it or not, I can critique it or not, but to tell someone to stop doing something you don't like about something you don't pay for/commission/support is some real conceit and arrogance. There's lots of art I like and lots I don't, so what? The artist didn't create it for ME--well, unless I commissioned the art and paid for it. Then it's for me. :)

This topic was dead for like weeks bro, you brought it back to life
Anyway when something is posted online anyone can give their opinion on it. I'm sorry the scan group is ten and can't handle criticism.
They asked for critiques on their art, at first I just said I didn't like it cause it disrupted the flow of the story, which it does, I said it wasn't that good to spam all over the manga, again, true (whether you like it or not) . The admin of the group asked for specific criticism, which I then gave.
Learn the lore.

I don't mind set roles in yaoi cause some people have preferences but it really bothers me when one of them expresses that they want to try topping and the other boy is like 'no, you're bottoming forever cause I ain't doing it'
I expect better in current yaoi era.

I feel you, its such a turn off ugh. Not only that but also this kind of attitude just shows how shallow "seme's-san" love is, cause when you love someone you care about their needs, you able to give in sometimes cause thats what relationship is about, agreement and understanding each other. Those 100% top that dont care about what their partner want are just selfish, their love is shallow and I hope this trope die as soon as possible. I dont mid seme x uke stories when they both happy with their roles though, cause if they both like it better that way then its fine, its healthy.

Super duper selfish! I guess he knows that the bottom blindly loves him enough to let him get away with such things. I want to one day read a story where the bottom just rebels if the top is so selfish. At least try it, if you can't get into it fine, but at least try.
Though to be honest I think my opinion is also colored by reality. It takes a lot of prepwork to do what the bottom does cleanly,safely, and without pain. A whole lot more than most Yaoi writers address.
Translator san your work is a lot more enjoyable that people that overclean and color pages.
Well, personally I enjoy your work more, so, don't feel bad about yourself. You're doing great.
