lol immediately sniped hhahaha

@OrangeLily I think the problem that sometimes happen is that the people that has been translating the work for much longer stops and the snipe was just there to be a dick and with that the manga ends up having no translator.

It isn't a snipe, this is just two groups independently working on the same chapter of a new manga while unaware of that the other group is working on the manga. Just making the manga page does not equate dibs... because people can't see who made a page. There is a reason why group leaders go into the main comment section and go btw we picked this up 😒

rather than snip, more like both of you have same target at the same time without prior communication since both of you (obviously) did not know each other

This isn't sniping. How is the other group supposed to know that you are working on this if you've never posted a chapter?
Stuff like this happens all the time, different groups decide to pick the same porject and release around the same time, and then they either hash out who gets to work on it, or they both just continiue to do their versions of the translation.

Either way, thank you for picking this project! :) We appreachiate all your effort and hard work, so please release your chapter 1 as well.

you didn’t announce your intent or publish a preview, how is anyone to know you’re working on it? they can’t read minds

If anything, you're the one doing the "sniping"1.

1 - Which is by itself a stupid concept, considering none of the groups in this site actually own the rights to the mangas they work in.

Heh what are the chances they are childhood friends with author dropping that much hints.
MC said her knee was hurting too and that dude healed her thigh instead.
Clearly one of them don't know where the knee is

I'd allow sniping for early chapters. Groups have little to no idea when someone is stockpiling translated chapters to release in waves and to waste their efforts would be disheartening to those who worked hard.

That said, would be nice to choose who will proceed from the next few chapters onward.

I saw an untranslated speech bubble where she exclaims something. She probably said "ecchi" in surprise when he healed her from under her skirt.

This is a new level of pettiness from a scanlator.

You can't accuse someone of sniping you when you haven't done anything yet.

"If there is a mangadex page for it someone is most likely working on it"

Nope !
There is a lot of empty looking mangadex pages around, and among those many are just looking empty because there is already chapters translated in a language hidden by the language list filter.
So even if a mangadex page exist for a manga, it doesn't mean that someone has reserved the spot for translated pirated chapters in a certain language.

I don't understand this community. I thought mangadex was like mangago where there is a single version of each chapter so if someone uploads a chapter, it is proper etiquette to not upload another translation of the same thing unless the previous translation is auto-translated and very bad. Then it came to my attention that mangadex is specifically designed in a way that a chapter can have multiple versions by multiple groups. The fact that the option exists means the website encourages multiple uploads since it's implemented in its core. Of course, if someone takes the same scans from someone else and reuploads them under a different name, it shouldn't be done but any other case is perfectly fine.

Personally, I don't see anything wrong with this. I don't even mind if on websites like mangago, a group B uploads before another (group A) even if group A has uploaded more chapters before. Some groups sit on chapters for 20+ mangas and take too many projects and then get angry when someone else starts working on 3 projects and does so faster than them. Why is that an issue ? You don't have the copyrights or any ownership to this. Translation is a hobby and no one should be denied it just because you made a "reservation" and then got busy with something else or even if you didn't get busy, it's not your thing! If so then one group would just upload a single chapter of 10000 mangas and forbid anyone else from uploading any updates while they take months and years to add new chapters. That's not how this works. I used to translate around 8-10 years ago and it was much less problematic back then. Now it feels like groups are ganging up on each other. Do your thing and let others do theirs
