@Hamin Yeah, I used to use MU way back when you still had to download almost all chapters from IRC servers. But if you think about it, MU used to be just another aggregator site. Sites like Onemanga, mangafox, kissmanga, etc., started expanding only AFTER the linking capabilities of MU were...
@Hamin Aggregator sites are not going away, because they fill a niche. There's power to be had by being one, so they're here to stay. That's why, saying that people got to used to having them is actually destructive, because you imply that using them is immoral. If you make that case, which...
@Phaestos True, most people like to pretend there's nothing wrong. In this case the drama affected many of us though, so I don't think pretending it's not a problem anymore, even though nothing was fixed, is going to help anybody, least of all us readers. There is not much I can do about that...
@Phaestos It's kind of sad, how people attack those that attempt to make the world a better place, but then people hate hearing the truth. They can't stand it and any excuse to hide the issues will suffice.
@Gian Luckily that is incorrect, as the recent shitstorm(s) were always escalated by a single person. If this post reaches that single person that would make the fatal decision the next time, and convinces them to stop and think first, I've done my job. Meanwhile, if somebody reads what I've...
@LowSanity that's perfectly fine. I wasn't looking to start a huge discussion either, but I do want people to think about it, so they won't just repeat the same actions the next time something like this pops up.
@qstars The whole JB thing is just one instance of the bigger issue. I'd like to do what I can to prevent a recurrence.
@Gian I sure am one of those people. My post isn't designed to keep the current drama going, it's designed to prevent the next one. That can't happen if nobody learns from...
Hi there,
over the last year, and especially the last weeks, we've seen a major shift of the local atmosphere towards a weather combination of bushfire, supercells, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions and the rising of Atlantis. I think we all secretly enjoyed a bit of popcorn as shit got flung around...
The existence of umami is not really up for debate anymore, iirc it's been proven that our taste buds actually have receptors specifically for it.
I'll see if I can find the video on it again.
Edit: This isn't the video I mean, but it'll work too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJ8Za69w0uA
@Loli_Omamoritai
If you want people to know that, you might wanna write it into the margins of two or three pages in the manga, much like that guy who lives at home supporting his mom does. Further, mark the first release "WIP" in the chapter title, or sth, so we know what's up. People AREN'T...
But really, proofreaders are necessary for humorous manga. D-Frag was pretty funny up until chapter 7. Once you started with the scanlation, you destroyed the English in such a way, that it ceased being funny because your sentences lost cohesion.
