Ads + Paid chapters + Stolen work, it's clearly a grift for you guys.

thats what im saying tho

I don't know why you'd ask when it's so obvious, if you thought I wouldn't care enough to reply with receipts you underestimate the effort people will go through to prove a point on the internet. I've not everything on your site but the most barefaced theft of what I've seen is Proud to be the Villainess. The money gating on it is especially egregious. Lets see how hard you worked on the series.

Proud to be the Villainess 11.3 -Philia vs Mangaup:

Philia - https://philiascans[dot]com/series/proud-to-be-the-villainess-ik4ezpli/chapter-11.3 :

I didn't wanna get my account flagged so I stopped trying to screenshot directly in app on my ipad, here's pictures from my phone of the chapter on manga-up:

Spoiler: Page 6

Despite the camera grain it's clear they're identical, I can't be bothered to go through all the chapters and find some sfx that for faster groups would be untranslated but it's even obvious from the free first chapter on japanese and english mangaup that it's been stolen:

In the Original Japanese:

Spoiler: Original Japanese

We have ああ in the bottom left, you'd have to clean this somehow.

In the English Mangaup:

Spoiler: English Mangaup

It's obviously flawless since it's official, what do we see on Philia? https://philiascans[dot]com/series/proud-to-be-the-villainess-ik4ezpli/chapter-1.1 :

Spoiler: Philia's Chapter 1

Also cleaned flawlessly, because it's just the stolen english translation. I can delete the screenshots if it's an issue with moderation, I just wanted clear examples so it's plain to see. Ads + Paid chapters + Stolen work, it's clearly a grift for you guys.

Hahahaha, I didn't minimize anyone or anything... It's just that we publish the official ones without taking credit for the translation... The chapters we publish are characterized by a small watermark on one of the pages. .... Because usually the republishing sites delete the pages we put in the beginning.....

We only do this because there are readers who can't afford to buy the chapters, so we publish the chapters for free... Even my own series that we publish and produce ourselves, if we want to put it behind the paywall, I put it behind the paywall for no more than three days and this is something only on one series that we put behind the paywall for three days, just to make sure that people like what we do and support us by buying those chapters even if they don't even read the series... The other series is one of our most successful series, we put it behind the firewall for 5 hours just for our vip readers, because they are the ones who donate large amounts of money to run the website... It would be disrespectful to thank them for their efforts.....

To be honest with you, we stopped adding any official chains to the website a couple of weeks ago, and now we just focus on giving our readers a proper reading experience, and also thank you for your efforts in researching and writing

I don't know when it became a crime to post ads and paid chapters. .... Even though we don't put even 1% of our chains behind a paywall, we are disrespected that much. .... You can take a look at the rest of the websites... and you will see the difference between us

I don't know what you think you're getting from replying?

If you know you stole the scans and you're doing it to liberate them for the poor chaps who can't afford them, why not just state that from the onset? You asked me for the stolen items like there weren't any. You're obviously trying to appear like a regular group whilst your actions show it's all about money. Getting donos or even ads would be fine but it's completely slimy to steal other scans and official scans to paywall for extra cash.

I didn't steal any scans, I'm a publishing platform as well, and I pay the teams that publish with me and help them with a lot of things from providing raw materials and providing series and a lot of things, to list them would seem like I'm just showing favoritism, I don't want to do that, we're just helping... There's only one series that I, as the owner of the platform itself, snatched up because the owner of the series was leaving bad comments on every chapter we released, I let him do whatever he wanted for a whole week, but I had enough and I took the series..... This is not an excuse to steal the series, but abuse is abuse..... And as I mentioned... I also have publishers on my website and all the teams there are self-publishers of their own free will

As a final note, I literally have not put a single penny in my pocket from scan... Everything I earn goes towards supporting the teams and providing what they need.

Again I don't know what you want from your response.

You can attempt to justify your actions however you please but your actions have already made it clear that money is the objective. That has been and tends to be frowned upon in scanalation because it's functionally illegal but also kind of needed to get official releases on things. You can say "I didn't steal any scans" but I have proof positive that you did in my prior post?

You won't be able to justify your actions when you're caught stealing official releases and not just posting them on your site but also pay walling them. Your credibility at least as far as on mangadex goes is shot, give it up.

You can say whatever you want about where the scan money went but unless you post the ad, coin and dono money you received and where it was forwarded too after, with the translators/cleaners etc. confirming that they received it for work you can't even begin to dream of anyone believing that you didn't pocket a penny. Even then no one will believe you because you have already conducted yourself abysmally. Hold the L man.

i think all phanta is tryin to say is that if u steal from people dont make people have to pay to get the stuff you stole

Well, the things that were “stolen” prevented publishers from locking them up. .... Because I was moved by what he said, and I think it's unfair to lock chapters that aren't produced by one of the publisher's teams or ours.

Thank you for constantly replying to me.
For starters, I'm sending screenshots of the publishers' personal matters, first of all unacceptable things to justify something that didn't happen, if no one received any money, none of them would continue to publish, and also ..... Would you believe me if I told you that my PayPal account doesn't have a bank card or “the country I live in doesn't even support cards that can be linked to PayPal?” Yes... I haven't actually taken a single penny for myself..... All the money that comes from ads and donations goes to develop the platform and support publishers

My point in saying you should show receipts of where the money goes is to prove you have some credibility, credibility that you've lost, here at least, since you've taken other peoples work and monetised it.

Whatever the specifics. I've seen other groups show payments being made publicly to people on the team as proof they are doing what they say, if you're not willing too then I won't shift my opinion. Even if you did I still wouldn't shift on my opinion anyway. You still uploaded a There's no Gyaru in this class chapter on your site, despite it being free basically worldwide on mangaplus for like 3 weeks or so. Proud to be the Villainess was paywalled and that was your justification for that, why are you taking non paywalled series and putting them on your site?

It from my view all comes back to money, clicks, coins and ads.

i agree.

on another note i didnt think that me saying that their charging ppl would get who ever is replying here so pissed off

 

[onlydoin4me]

well i dont see any here…

 

[IdanaHamz]

I weaponized my fake incompetence, I'm constantly lying, and I'm manipulating you as we speak with a lot of things from subtle lies, inane deflections and straight up bullshit. I don't want to stop, we're just lying... There's only lies lies falsehoods and misinformation if you take our words for it, which I would really love if you do. Also I smell money??

As a final note, I did maybe take you guys for fools but like, I'm inner thighs innocent guys like I swear. I mean some dumbasses I mean people in other websites and aggregators' comments keep defending us despite the blatant lies we been spewing so that must mean we're doing something right???

There, FTFY.
