Mangadex to purge titles for legal reasons

[cybeast21]

Keep in mind that the one who made the statement has not appearing again (at least as of page 45) in this thread, and is still on the mod team.

I'm not saying the mod team has biased side, but...

If they implement this, I'm leaving this site. I've used Mangadex since it was created, but if they're going to do stupid things like this, I don't plan to stay here. Most harem comedies have at least one loli character; the 100 Brides series, for example, is completely ridiculous. There are several good manga I follow that I know will be deleted because of this nonsense, such as "The Death-Defying Princess Creates a Yuri Harem to Survive" or "Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete."

The age old saying forever remains true, "mods gay"

Truer words have never been spoken

According to Bart, they are currently under reviewing.
Knowing how corpo work, they want to hide their shit, so let wait till final annoucement.

Just how bad were the 10 gates of hell that were deleted that did not include this one. Also it is carefully hidden from in-site search it seems. Had to search using "titles only" filter on forum, then locate thread then go to chapter. (Or I suck at using search function properly, but if I never had to do so before, I wonder why?)

If it were just shololi, I wouldn't care, but we both know they're going to eventually purge the BL too.

I didn't appreciate the "If you jerk it off to little kids, go and do it elsewhere; there are ites that specialise in that."
I didn't come here to jerk it off to little kids, EtherealNeko, some of us just want BL with Bakugou in it, dude. I don't care about the smut in the FMA doujinshi (calm down Ed is usually older in those), I just want Kyuugou's art in original quality. We just want to read BL like Blue Sky Complex for the romance (yes, it does have smut). What will happen to all the Haikyuu doujinshi... Other sites usually don't have those in original quality...

Are the servers really in the UK? sobs
edit: or are they in Delaware?? dude, stuff with drawn minors isn't even illegal in like, over 90% of America??

Why is an illegal site trying to comply with a law that doesn’t even exist where they are based? You’re street rats, stop trying to act like you’re princes.

lol, yeah, there are still some pretty crazy ones left, but i was refering mostly about the tags, like sexual violence + loli, some things seem kinda random at times honestly, and user exeperience can vary, i could search it up just typing the full title in the search bar and hitting enter.



But it seems what is happening, it's just a question of time till total purge (not just here), rumours happens for a reason, just like the RAM market thing, who was smart enough (and had the money too, of course) and listened to the rumors, made good deals.

There are more dark times ahead about censorship, control and surveillance coming, who ignores it because they think 'i have nothing to hide', 'they deserve it' or 'what can we do?' is being purposely ignorant.

Take the whole roblox thing for instance, a bit suspicious that a good chunk of the investors, who lets be honest, did know what transpired in the game, waited for things to escalate till the point it got just to push data information collection and surveillance bills, huh?

I trust "Under reviewing" as much as I trust Joker in Batman

Something better than nothing, not like we don't already make other decisions.
seem like there are dozens of people start flooding the server with request so they can export their stuff to the alternative site akready.

mangadex LTD is a company, so customers have choice to use it or not, it just happened that they used their goodwill credit on this.

I'd probably just exporting my read list to other site after this since I dunno when/if they'll get removed DX

Our legal department told us to take action and we took it. That is the extent of what I can or want to say regarding that.

you took action for sure. we see that and thats why we are here.

Stop evading my question. Tell us who contacted you. Who is this "legal nexus" ?
keeping this a secret makes it worse.
If these people are so proud of what they do and truly believe they are in the right, i am sure they want to be in the open so that their followers and supporters can celebrate them.

tell us who they are. messing with other people and pushing their beliefs and agenda on others but trying to keep anonymous is just disgusting.

why don't you tell us who they are ? on what basis ? Did they add a sentence like: "remove that bad stuff but dont dare tell anyone who made you do it, or else . . ."

that looks more like mobster tactics than a "legal nexus"

Staff want to keep pulling this shit, I'm pulling my funding.

yeah. you should do that. i alredy canceled mine on saturday.
everyone should.
they need to feel it in the wallet to understand

 

[NightmareOkami]

Titles being removed are those we have been made aware of through a legal nexus as "considered the distribution of illegal material". Moderation will not go beyond the titles mentioned; there was Papa Milk and anything adjacent, and some others still in review.

If we are notified of anything else, we will try to inform uploaders before proceeding with removals, where possible.

It's fiction not reality

 

[Owyoushotme]

I doubt they would cause problems for other users, though.

The whole reason I found out about this was me seeing ads, went to discord to get support l. Next day someone reacted to my message so i check back and find this whole mess.

 

[Zahogan]

Hey @Bartolumiu, since it appears you're the only one from the staff with a brain, who do I have to contact to have my entire account and all its associated data deleted? I have decided to finally leave this cesspool. With mods like these and the lack of communication before any sweeping action is taken, be it censoring or completely deleting series, I no longer have any faith in the site and its staff members.

Done

 

[Flash_Dingo]

There are several jurisdictions that consider ficional depictions of underage characters in sexual acts to be illegal.

Pretty sure there are also a lot of jurisdictions that consider piracy illegal, you clown.

Site's long gone to shit, and became worse with the new tourist 'leadership'. Fuck em.

It is illegal in the UK. If that really is where they're based.

 

[BestBoy]

entire account and all its associated data deleted

not possible, but maybe in the future apparently.
