It isnt sniping if the manga isnt updated around the time a raw is out (a couple of weeks give or take).In Eresh Scans' defense, before anyone accuses them of sniping, it has been three months since Brutalbot Scans released their previous chapter. At least according to the data on mangadex' page.
I thought it was 6 months before free-for-all?Unspoken rule of thumb is 3 month no release, its free for all, unless the raw was on hiatus
For what Brutalbots said on their discord, they wait until full chapter is available (probably for free instead of paywalled), as someone that follow the raws, 63.2 became "free" just last week with the release of Chapter 64 as paid, manga updates just going slowpaced too since it returned from hiatus in september with chapter 62 and volume 7, due to artist health (scan tl it like a month later, otherwise would've been longer between chapters)Well, I didn't know.
Maybe they did not know either.
Not like there was a warning of hiatus on the last chapter, unless Brutalbot Scans removed it when posted here. And just because the scan was uploaded wherever they got recently doesn't mean it was released recently. There are some stories here that, if not for the pt-br translation continuing, I'd have thought had been axed or something
But anyways, I'm not part of that group so I can't say anything about their thought process in this.
I would probably do the mistake of thinking it had been dropped, though.
lmao okay and expecting things done for free for you constantly is entitlementExpecting manga to go untranslated for 6 months is crazy, even 3 is too long
I'm happy if I get something to read at all. All these translators etc, even the crap MTL ones, are doing far more for me than I'm doing for them.lmao okay and expecting things done for free for you constantly is entitlement
yes there are countless volunteers out on the internet with the same interests in manga etc, and also recognize this is a very entitled mindset

You are missing the point, I am not being entitled about the translations if it is organic. I just think having monopoly on mangas is stupid. If a group is not releasing it other people should be free to do it themselves. If a manga has no fans and organically stop being translated then it is what is no biggie.lmao okay and expecting things done for free for you constantly is entitlement

Think of it less like a business and more like a gentleman's thief unspoken agreement; we're all breaking the law here, but we've gotta have some kind of honour among thieves, else we end up with total anarchy and unstranslated mangas.You are missing the point, I am not being entitled about the translations if it is organic.
