I think it is pretty immature to basically add frontpages to work you stole which say: "I know I should not do this but yolo I do it anyway".
That was answered adequately.
Of course the scanlator doesn't owe us anything, but it seems like they are trying to select who gets to read their scans and who doesn't. What's the difference if I read the chapter here or on Tumblr/Discord? It's true, Mangago makes money, but so does Tumblr and Discord every time someone visits their platforms.
I don't buy raws, but I bought 3 volumes of Saezuru at Junemanga. That's my way of contributing to the author, but most people don't have that luxury.
I agree that it was very silly of the uploader to add a credits page. But the last uploader didn't do that, and they were insulted as well. I remember a long post the scan group posted on Tumblr insulting them just for uploading here.
Also the scanlator adds their skit at the end as part of the chapter. I don't think that's right either.
Why would Mangago take responsibility for what the users post? This is a sharing site.
Every uploader is still anonymous, just because they have a username doesn't mean that we know their identitiy.
Of course scanlating takes a lot of time and effort, but that is something they choose to do, no one is forcing them. And they keep talking about uploaders "stealing" their chapters to post them here. These chapters don't belong to the scanlator. Just because you translate something doesn't mean that suddenly it becomes your work, you don't have rights over it. They shouldn't be translating this to begin with, so a little bit of humility would be nice.
Why don't you try to understand other people's point of view? Or trying to be snarky is all you know how to do?
Amen.
So agree with you
Why does the scan group make such a big deal every time someone uploads here?
The reason why the chapters always end up here is because a lot of people discovered Saezuru thanks to Mangago and a big part of the fandom hangs out here since the beginning.
I think it's ridiculous to think that you can have any type of control over something you decided to post online. This is the internet, people share what they find.
And I think it's pretty immature to insult and harass the uploader like that. Scanlating is illegal to begin with, so both the uploader and the scanlator are equally at fault here.
