@Zephyrus
Having three different staff members contact the group over the same issue over the span of months isn’t harassment to you?
To the claim that I’m doing shady stuff: I’m not running MangaDex. I have nothing to prove here. It is your job to prove that you truly act in the scanlators...
@Xunder
Holo was the first person to post a link to the anthology. There are also multiple times where Holo congratulated the people running the KissManga troll chapter.
Unless Holo isn’t staff, MangaDex staff definitely supported those :)
@Zephyrus
So, you agreed with me that the channel is not accessible to PUs as you had initially claimed. Nice refutation.
Never implied that you were making it up. Merely pointing out the convenience of posting from a channel that only select people can access.
Normally joining group...
@Holo
Come back when the benchmark for being scanlator-friendly is not just being better than KissManga. This obsession with other aggregators is getting so ridiculous that creating bait chapters is now encouraged by MangaDex staff.

Alright.
MangaDex actively knows One Snowshoe wants their chapters taken down and refuses to take them down.

I don't think MangaDex started on May 4, 2018.

@Xunder
Group restrictions were removed meaning MangaDex disregarded the group's wishes.
I don't remember MangaDex having a right to host all scanlations. Also the highest quality scanlation? I highly doubt that. More than a few chapters were ripped from other aggregators because MangaDex...
@Wolvenworks
I agree you can't have perfection. Some things MangaDex has is just not scanlator-friendly though. Regardless, it's what we've got for now.
@Wolvenworks
Ah you meant the site in general. I was referring to the "MangaDex Network."
I suppose you're right about a hub being beneficial to the scanlation community. MangaDex is by no means perfect though...
I'd like to urge scanlators to keep a backup blog and to keep local backups of their chapters if they are not doing so already. Centralization has proven to not be very good for the scanlation community (re Batoto).
@SushiBentou
What we did was remove the Infinite Scroll option (it was a clone of Long Strip and caused issues with saving). This is what caused the settings to reset. I am currently experiencing this issue and will try to find a solution.
In the meantime, I recommend using the new reader. It...
