Can I use raws from mangatoon? :fixed:

[rspreet]

I want to know if I can use the raw chapters from mangatoon? Will the chapters be removed because there's mangatoon watermark/logo on it?
Because some of the chapters I translate are released earlier on mangatoon than the official site. If I can use the mangatoon raws I could release chapters earlier.

Don't know if this thread should be in General or Support

Remove the watermark, use the raws and you should be fine.

Don’t rip official translations.

I'm not good at removing watermarks. That's why I asked if I can upload them with mangatoon's watermark.

Don’t rip official translations.

I'm not doing that. I translate it myself.

@rspreet
Don’t upload anything with a watermark that isn’t your own.

Doing so is considered theft.

Watermarked raws are tolerated but frowned upon. If they're getting chapters before the official release and watermarking them, someone else has the unwatermarked chapters and they're likely available somewhere public.

@BraveDude8 Mangatoon is licensed publisher, so it's unlikely that the source from where they are getting chapters is available publicly.

@rspreet If it's unavoidable, it's acceptable.
