Netorare Tsuihousareta Saikyou Kishi Danchou no Ossan, Katainaka de Eiyuu ni Matsuriagerareru - Ch. 6.1

I don't really care about that series.

The series I care about, I scanlate them if someone doesn't do them.

I pay out of my pocket for all the series I translate when the chapters are not free. I buy the magazines. I buy the volumes for the extras. Just so people can enjoy them too. I never asked a single cents to anyone.

And I'm alone. If it's a group, they'd just have to pool that bit of money and it'd be even cheaper.

There's ZERO reason to make the readers pay for something pirated, except greed.

But its way easier to do them if you only do it once in a month on a manga, not like scanlators that are keeping up with the original manga, not everyone has enough money to spend it all the time on raws for a manga, i dont agreed with every type of paywalling, but having a patreon with one chapter advanced is good imo

Whatever you do, don't do that.

Yes, you can have a Patreon, or a Ko-Fi, or whatever other payment system that tickles your fancy.

But no, you're not allowed to have "advanced" chapters behind paywalls while posting here on MD. That is exactly why Tsuki no Fansub and Bega Scans got banhammered from MD.

The reason for this is very, very simple. Anytime you paywall chapters, that's gonna eventually draw the attention of a publisher. It's not a matter of "if" but "when".

And if there's one thing that publishers despise even more than just piracy? It's bootlegging. And yes, putting chapters behind paywalls counts as bootlegging.

So once a publisher takes note of that? They'll start by reporting your accounts to those payment systems, which will not only ban you from their services, but also reverse as many payments as possible. The loss of funds isn't just immediate. It's retroactive.

And honestly, I am not just pulling this out of my ass. Just check on Nerissa's Barely Competent Jailbird Scans to see what I mean. She's constantly getting her accounts banned by Ko-Fi, and she isn't paywalling anything for any amount of time.

Anyhow, after that the next step is going to be Cease and Desist letters for you, as well as DMCA strikes against MD. Which is bad because that means you're officially on their radar, and MD gets caught in the lines of fire since it's being hosted on their website.

So please. Don't do that. It only hurts everyone, including yourself, in the long run.

Nope, you do are allowed to have advanced chapters behind a paywall that isnt a coin system, but only for a week, bega was banned for having a paywalling, true, but they did tell him and other "paywallers" that they are only allowed to have it for only 1 week, tukii was banned for the paywalling and because they were working with an already banned scan (antipatreon), that was banned for put a link to another web.
What publishers hate is the piracy, not just the bootlegging just the piracy, thats why bato.to got down, i wont put a paywalling but i wont pay for the raws.

If a translation/group is banned because of an action that would draw legal action towards MangaDex, it makes sense that they would still be banned if they try to upload the same thing that got them banned.

mangadex existing draws legal action. this is like being worried about a parking ticket while robbing a bank.
