    I’m not too sure what you mean. If you read here, the official site doesn’t profit

    ah no i wasn't talking about that.

    i saw in the last page of ch 8, the one w/ the purple background, that Toon. net was opening their commissions for scanlating someone's favorite series.

    i was just wondering if they're allowed to profit from scanlations, since that could take away profit from the original author.

    (well i know i dont have the right to talk about this when im reading on this site )

    I feel like that's only allowed if there's no English version of a manhwa or manga

    I was searching for official sites and noticed that too. Seems kinda risky imo.

    Ah... Well, just like how we read here is illegal, profiting out of a manga/manwha without the author official agreement is illegal so translating the work it self already illegal so of course, profiting out of illegal translation is illegal....
