This is Just My Input

For people out there saying stuff like "You chose to read it so you can't complain": you have to read at least part of a story to know what it's about and to build a reasonable perspective on it. If people were to just read the summary or the tags of a story (which on this website can be misleading) wouldn't it be kind of unfair to the author and the story? Especially if readers are genuinely curious to see if a talented artist/author like this one happened to write a banger.

Also, readers giving positive or negative feedback about the author or the story is a normal thing. That's why opinions, free will, and critics exist. I am not trying to defend a specific group of people, but I do know that some people take things too far and get worked up over a disagreement on A STORY. And disagreements about opinions, not morals.

Anyways, that's just my input but regardless, happy reading everyone.

    I agree with everything you’re saying! But the thing is, I don’t really think mangago is the best place for people to be giving feedback to the author or illustrator. It’s a pirating site and for that reason it’s blocked in Korea so Korean authors can’t take action against it. The original sites do have adequate tags and warnings so people can get the fuck out of dodge if they see something they don’t like, but mangago often doesn’t have the same warnings or at least not in places where people can easily find them. That being said, I think if it takes five chapters of dodgy, fucked up stuff before a person realizes they don’t like fucked up stuff, that’s mostly on them.

    No I totally get that. People need to know that getting to read these translations for FREE is such a privilege (and a crime), so getting worked up about these kinds of things on here is literally pointless. It's not a crime to have an opinion, but telling people to "k1ll themselves" because they don't agree with you is so unnecessary.

    Yeah, I actually love critiquing stories but people have zero chill on mangago. It's basically just reddit for people who think they're too good for reddit.

    Thank you! I caught a lot of heat in the comment sections of different stories on mangago, because I tend to be quite critical. Why can't I just voice my opinion on a fiction without being insulted in the comments??
