Apologies if I shouldn’t write this here, but I couldn’t find where to write for a question like this.
I was about to post the link to the (finally) new chapter of Return of the Mount Hua Sect on Asura Scans, when I remembered that on r/manga it was frowned upon to post links to their site. Is there a similar policy here, or is it ok?
Obviously I’m not a moderator, but at the moment with the size of this community, I feel like that might be perhaps too limiting of a rule for now. Seems okay to me to try and if a moderator requests it to be removed then we follow that moving forward? Good question.
That’s a good point and I was actually itching on posting the link. Regardless, since most of us come from Reddit I’d say that certain behaviors in specific communities are ingrained. Hence my hesitance and this post.
To add to this, this isn’t Reddit, I’d imagine places would need to re-earn those bans again, from /m/manga’s (/m/anga?) “staff/owner”
What was the controversy with Asura Scans?
If I recall correctly, they were caught straight out stealing (not that we have the moral high ground) already translated chapters when they were mass releasing? Take it with a grain of salt, I’m not confident about it.
When in doubt, try posting a Cubari link instead.
The reason why they were banned from reddit is that they were stuffed full with ads and the subreddit didn’t want to be a party to people profiting off piracy. Scanlation is already sketchy enough.
