Mangadex to purge titles for legal reasons

[BestBoy]

each n' every comic posted to the site as prior approval.

I don't recall anyone saying this. In fact, only a tiny minority of titles have prior approval. I can name like, 1 title that isn't self-published that received approval from the author.

All uploaders and groupleaders: Please stop removing your uploads. This is not helping.

I mean would you trust a site that removes stuff without any communication? Plus I am sure for most groups this was just another item that made them decide to remove their stuff

sure. But at least for me the goal was and is to keep the website with its library alive .
all this posting i did aimed to convince everyone involved to change the course of action and make mangadex a better place again.
but removing the uploads now is just as destructive and stupid as what the admins did
with the , lets call them, "loli titles".

(i am not talking about the great purge from may, if they hadn't removed the chapters the website would have been shut down. that the website and its operators got into this exact situation that they either comply or get busted is a different story about opsec persec and selfperception)

i am a longtime user and i just dont want to give up on Mangadex just now.
I love and i deeply support the idea it once was created with in mind:

Make scanlations, all scanlations, no matter what genre author or content, available to the people and serve as memorial for the groups and the hard work they poured into their scanlations and the stories behind it.

one i remember very fondly is the story of monkeyvodoo from facepalm scans who uploaded 11GB of Data while being on roaming. . .

all this gave me as reader the feeling to be part of something
i Just dont want to lose this

We both know that this isn't reasonable and the people that come here weren't old users, but strangers that want to stir shit and be in an online drama.

You sure about that bud? Check mine

They did say it,everytime someone mentioned MangaDex in some capacity,that is what they said.

And the fix after the 7000+ corpses?,a mandatory checkbox for uploaders that the series has prior approval.

Prior approval is part of the promise MangaDex made to make themselves seem like they were not a piracy site.

How is it enforced?...good question.

The long running identity crisis needs to end,MangaDex is a piracy site,complying with anything,especially non-existent laws,is not what they should be doing.

you better check that again.
most of the people here are long time users.

i used MD even before registering . i did it back in 2019 when the search was disabled for not logged in useres because the servers suffered from overload almost everyday.

i dont want to stir shit and i hate drama.

we try to convince the Admins to do better and save the website and the content.
Removing even more stuff is just a terrible spiteful move.

Understandably, those uploaders might be pissed. Maybe they're not helping, but so is nuking titles and then calling people here with the pdf word.

It's basically a FAFO thing, I feel?

BTW...

imo he's talking about the ultimate cuck whose wife cucked him with his best friend
and all of his friend group left him because of his pro-ice/racist views

That would certainly narrow it a lot,but I probably have not heard who that specifically is.
