Holy crap, people are being so rude here (and dumb).I'd rather not have any links anymore if that means MU won't go down. Thanks guys for your great work as always. I've been using this website for 9 years now haha. 385hc

As with anything, you get used to things with time

O_O now it will be harder to find scanlation group
guess I will sport "Google" on another tab each time I come here

Could somebody tell me which groups submitted the i wanna know for whom i must buy bigger glasses because i think they are blind.
Someone suggested if u can post link without directlink it would help to go faster to groups homesites is it possible ?
and btw some sites change they country of server just to make money and they dont give a **** about groups why they dont they accuse them instead

Quote from Lilanar

So true. It's really fishy. And I don't know why only one other site comes to my mind that no one has been able or really tried to stop it even when they're hosting popular copyrighted/licensed series.

The problem here is the "enabling" part of the agreement. So it still is possible but reeeealllllly suspicious.

wanting to keep a trashy site up and running

lol.

What's done is done. Either this decision will be reversed or a new manga database site will come up soon.

don't worry guys it still easy to find the group just block the grup name and search from google and 😀

One less reason to visit MangaUpdates.

In this past years many take down on free file hosting site and isp putting Bandwidth cap on their service and now this.Look like the internet is will also following "Nothing Is Free in this World" policy.

Pls it's just as everybody said just put the address as plain text and we are done. that cant be illegal right?

Here are the stats for visits to the site of one of my groups (the smallest one).

This means pretty much the death of most scanlator web sites (and of MU as well). Scanlators will be working for Mangafox, Mangareader etc even more than in the past. It's a huge win for online readers. Do I want to continue scanlating in this environment? I'm not sure anymore.

so what's next? removal of groups/scanlators name?

Maybe you could make a twitter and add it to your MU page and link your site in your profile information? Better than nothing. This is worrying 😔

Its reason for existing has not disappeared. We tell our readers there are alternative ways to obtain our scanlations other than aggregators, but their ignorance and/or laziness could be beginning of the end, not MU's fault.
