Uploaded chapter not showing up anymore

[Neko_Chan]

I uploaded chapter 45 of tokyo revengers at about 12:30 pst and it stayed up for awhile, but when i went back on at about 3:00 pst it was no longer up and i had received no notifications saying it had been taken down so i tried refreshing a few times, and when that didn't work i tried re-uploading the chapter which was met with "cannot upload at this time"

@Neko_Chan it seems that chapter was deleted for being a rip of the official English version.

 

[Neko_Chan]

@Lymus Srsly? Huh k den, so does that mean imma have to change the wording of it? I mean if that still doesn't work thats fine but i just wanted to add in the missing 73 or so chapters

If all you have is the official english releases... then its likely you wont be allowed to upload anything.

 

[Neko_Chan]

@Lymus wait a second i just checked the other english translations on the tokyo revenger's page and if my stuff was marked as ripped how come theirs wasn't, since theirs just moved the words around and changed the font a little

@Neko_Chan

What are you talking about? Who? What ? Huh?

Comparing the free sample from Amazon for vol 14 ch 117 and what First Division Scanalations has uploaded, It's clear to me it's not just a rip or using the same translations. in the first box on page 3 (4 for what's here) the official is "I found my way to him" while FDS has "I'm finally seeing Mikey." additionally the official translation is only up to vol 14 and FDS is past that.

@Granitefish take a look at chapter 44 not 117, 44 was what i was looking at

@Neko_Chan

Okay, nevermind, I found this Tokyo Revengers manga or whatever you're talking about. Not tryn to be mean but.......

First off, you're trying to drag another group down like they're doing the same thing you're doing. . . . Let's ignore that because it's not gonna matter after you read my next sentence.


Chapters past 134 are not being sold in English on the Official Kodansha comics link. How is 1st Division Scanslation supposedly copying chapters 134-151+ that don't exist? It looks like they buy raws and translate them in succession.

So, uh, let's break this down:
There are some people in this world who know more than one language. Sometimes, they make take words and sentences written or spoken in one language, and rewrite or repeat them in a different language. This process is called "Translation". Now, barring circumstances where the person chooses to censor things or try to change a phrase with a specific meaning in one language to a roughly equivalent phrase in another, generally this process produces similar results from different people.

It's tough to tell if, for some reason, this one group has taken scans of the official work and decided to "shift some words around" while re-typesetting the entire thing, unless the way it was cleaned of raw text is completely identical or some changes were made graphically in the official translation for English audiences.

 

[Granitefish]

The free sample only goes has chapter 43 and checking those translations they don't line up. the first text is "Looking back on that trip now. I can see that's what led to the incident" in the Official, and "Looking back, that ride was the start of the incident" in Twisted Hel Scans translation, Additionally the official puts the translation of the vrooom under the Japanese SFX, whereas THS replaces it.

Ok i get that i may just be seeing similarities that may not exist, and im not trying to drag other groups down with me either, i just want to add in the missing chapters, and since the stuff i put up was apparently an official english rip im using a different translation and am going through and re-translating and redrawing a different raw so that other people can access the missing chapters. I truly didn't want to drag anyone down i was just trying to find similarities between what i used and what other groups used so that others users could read the entire story on mangadex and not have to go to other sketchy sites.

I'm sorry for any inconvenience I've caused
