Chapter Upload Restricted

[outrageousservice]

I'm new to scanlating but made my first chapter upload without a hitch. Someone requested that I upload two pages of a previous chapter as well since they were slightly different to the previous release, so I did that in a rush without stopping to consider that it broke the rule of uploading only part of a chapter. I'm taking full responsibility here, it was a stupid mistake and I should have been more careful, for which I have no excuse. It's been about a week since I was banned, and I was wondering if I will be able to start uploading again? I've got the next chapter for that series ready to be uploaded and was looking forward to contributing again. I'm really sorry for breaking the rules and will make sure that this doesn't happen again. Please let me know if there is any way I can help reverse the restriction. Thank you.

There is a test manga for new uploaders to test things out. here:

it's a playground of sorts.

Please don't direct people to the test manga for their first upload - anything in the upload queue for this series will be immediately deleted.

OK, I just thought test manga was just that. A please to see if you are doing it right.
Noted!

I was restricted from uploading a month ago, and was wondering whether this is permanent. I made a post previously but got no replies. Thanks in advance.

Mod note: duplicate thread merged into this one.

The chapter was incomplete, you uploaded uncensored pages to a non-pornographic title, and you broke various naming conventions. I suggest you familiarise yourself with the site rules before uploading another chapter.

 

[outrageousservice]

Yes, I understand that I was banned for uploading an incomplete chapter. I have no excuse and I take full responsibility for that. As for uploading uncensored pages, previous uploads by other users contained uncensored pages as well. Another's wrong doesn't justify mine, but my own previous upload contained the same and was manually approved, so I don't really understand why this is a problem now. Anyways, sorry for coming off rude, I'm just a bit frustrated at myself with this whole situation. This was a really stupid mistake on my part, which I've learned from. I hope that you can give me a second chance at scanlating.

I've removed your restriction, but like I said, read the rules.

As for uploading uncensored pages, previous uploads by other users contained uncensored pages as well.

We don't go out there and review every single chapter that's published on the website, it's physically impossible for us, that's why we rely on user reports, your chapter was reported.

my own previous upload contained the same and was manually approved

We receive hundreds of chapters to manually review, and statistically speaking, mistakes will be made. Luckily for us, we have a solid user base of people that constantly report faulty data and rule-breaking chapters, so we can fix them.

Thank you, and yeah totally understand that manually reviewing everthing on such a large website is impossible. Going forward, should I rather aim to change the title's rating, or should I self censor future uploads? Thanks again for your understanding.

Going forward, should I rather aim to change the title's rating, or should I self censor future uploads?

The content rating should be representative of the title as a whole, this means that the chapters should match the content rating, otherwise it should be changed. However, if this title has an "uncensored version", either a new entry should be made or refrain from uploading the uncensored version to the censored entry.

Got it, thanks
