either 1: a group got blocked on MD or 2: one of the many many casualties during the great DMCA purgeHuh? I remember this manga had much more chapters. Are they deleted?
if the later were the case i think the chapters are available as "unavailable chapters"?either 1: a group got blocked on MD or 2: one of the many many casualties during the great DMCA purge
It was translated up to chapter 7 by Bega Translation who got banned (See mod note on group page), thus their uploads were deleted.Huh? I remember this manga had much more chapters. Are they deleted?
It is dumb af that after a group gets banned their translations also get deleted. There is no reason for this shit.It was translated up to chapter 7 by Bega Translation who got banned (See mod note on group page), thus their uploads were deleted.

Do you know what actually happened? That's the second group I've seen banned recently for breaking clause 5.2.22. There are probably more, given that it's hard to notice when chapters are deleted. For reference, the rule is that you can't "use the Site as part of any effort to compete with us or otherwise use the Site and/or the Content for any revenue-generating endeavor or commercial enterprise". Given that Patreon generates revenue, I'm pretty sure that would include half the groups on this site if enforced strictly.It was translated up to chapter 7 by Bega Translation who got banned (See mod note on group page), thus their uploads were deleted.
That group had a Patreon too. As far as I'm aware, you can receive donations on Patreon to help support the scanlation team and even post chapters early on their own site/Patreon, but you'll have to eventually upload hereDo you know what actually happened?

Interesting. Paywalling chapters has historically been allowed, and IIRC in the previous version of MD you could even set a time delay for uploads which would be visible on the title page. It's probably a good thing that that's gone given that it incentivizes paywalling, but I don't think paywalling itself is against the rules unless something has changed. The one exception I can think of would be posting a placeholder chapter that just links to your site/Patreon, but I don't think that would get you banned unless you ignored warnings and reuploaded them after removals.That group had a Patreon too.

They most likely got banned because they've had lots of chapters on Patreon that weren't uploaded here
