I swear every time I hear someone complain about sniping I want to slap them. How about if you intend to continue working on a manga but haven't updated it in months you make an announcement of some sort that states as much instead of leaving everyone in the dark about the situation?! How is anyone else meant to know if you don't say?

Squiggles needs to do more dead manga just to see if people have really dropped them or not XD I have a couple of dead follows I'd love to see get a poke!

Worse is, scanlation isn't even a legal thing x'D and true, after more than 3 month, it's already on the waiting list to be picked up 👻

"Oh no! Someone did the voluntary translation of a manga that I haven't touched in seven months! And didn't even talk to me before doing it, too! What a meanie, I don't like it! Stop sniping me!"
What are you, eight? If you can't or don't want do it, it's understandable, go on with your life. Just don't complain when somebody else picks the series up. Stupidest shit I've seen in weeks, holy shit.

You know you don't have to be mean to the other group ? I mean yes,it's understandable that Squiggle think the other group drop it and it's kinda strange to complain about it the moment it pick up after a 7 months hiatus without explanations but that doesn't you give you the right to trashtalk.

I really feel like some rules need to be agreed on as to what is sniping and what isn't. I feel bad for someone having their hard work devalued by multiple scanlations; At the same time if someone else wants to scanlate it and the raws have already been out for some time, it's kind of selfish to force a whole community and readerbase to wait for your specific scanlation. I appreciate every scanlation that gets posted on this site regardless of the quality, so it bums me out to see the contention between groups. There are way too many arguments over sniping on this site, and the large majority of the time I don't think the "snipers" are doing it out of malicious intent. They just want to release a scanlation so everyone can enjoy the manga that they enjoy, which is why we're all here.

The only people who own a manga are the mangaka and the publisher.
Seriously, f*ck anyone who whines about "sniping" BS.

wait wait wait.... so they got mad that someone else picked it up all of a sudden while they havent touched this is a looooong time wtf?

not gonna lie thats pretty annoying as this series just out of no where stopped getting translated so pretty sure me and many others thought it was dead and im sure it was

and now that @SquigglesJP decided to pick the series back up and continue now all of a sudden the other group all of a sudden apparently out of nowhere is working on it and have chapters ready??? after 7 +months???

seriously wtf

honestly i would love if @SquigglesJP would continue this series cause i feel the other group might just stop again after a few chapters but all in all its pretty annoying for the other group just to out of nowhere just magically reappear all of a sudden after they pretty much dropped the series and now suddenly back when someone else decided to pick it back up

3 months without update is considered to be picked up.. much less a 7 months one..
this is not 'snipe'.. this is 'pick up'..

Alright, I realize it wasn't a snipe, poor word choice.
I know I could have handled this better. Real life got in the way, I should have announced a hiatus and stuff like that. I didn't, that's my bad. I asked, and @SquigglesJP and co. were gracious enough to give Moe Panda another chance at it and I am incredibly appreciative for that. I'm mixing some things up so releases should be much more consistent going forward.

@JayBae you were wrong using the word snipe, but it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist as some people said. Go to Urara Meirochou manga, for example, THAT is a snipe, and that shouldn’t be allowed. With that said, @JayBae only mistake was not announcing a hiatus, if he’s already translating the manga, makes sense not wanting another scan to pick this up, really looking forward to your releases tho. As @Lilliwyt said, all this "misunderstandings" is not enough reason to trashtalk, and I too apologize for my last comment.

moe panda is like a baby and their toy ball, they ignore it and dont play with it but as soon as someone takes it away they throw a fit.
