I had to open back my account (I made this one like 2 years ago, but never use it coz i'm a lazy one), so I can say how tired I am with this whole situation. Guys, the author spoke, they don't wanna the uploads anymore, so we gotta respect them, because at the end of the day it's their hardwork and probably their way of income, BUUUUUT I'm hella tired of people on social media (specially on T*kT*k) posting the name of this site. I've been here for a very long time (talking about hella lots and lots of years) and thanks to that I've met a lot of good artwork that fortunally I've been able to support legally.
As an artist myself I know how hard is the earning of money, but as a consumer as well I know the struggle of not having the economy sometimes to buy it. Thanks to these sites, I met amazing works and after reading them I'm way more excited to consume it legally (even though I've already read it). My point is: How can I spend a lot of money if I don't know I'm gonna really enjoy it?
I read a comic on this site---> I like it a lot----> I buy all of the chapters anyway so I can support the author of the work I enjoyed so much.
I'm aware MY economy's stable and I can live from what I love to do, and buy every chapter or merch that I want, but NOT everyone's in the same position, so maybe their way of supporting the author is acquire like 2 or 3 chapters per month, and that's fine as well.

If you do have the economy: BUY THE CHAPTERS! even if you buy even like 1 or 2 per month, don't forget authors actually eat and have to pay lot of taxes lol. If you don't have the economy, ok go ahead, keep reading on illegal sites (anyway, nobody's gonna stop you), but if you do enjoy the work, at least save a little bit of money so you can show the author how much you love the work and subscribe to their patreon, buy at least some merch or some episodes.

PIRACY's not always black and white/good or bad, because we have all consume it at some point of our lives, some even without knowing. But let's remember; ART IS NOT A NECESITY, IT IS A LUXURY at the end of the day.
To find the balance you have to be empathetic with all the scenarios. People sometimes don't have money, and they wanna forget about an awful day with artworks that make them happy. But for artists i'ts not a hobby, it's their purchasing power, and it's tiring and unfair some people don't even wanna spend money on what you put your time, health and hard work every single day. (And L*zh*n takes a high percentage of what you receibe per chapter, so in the end you get almost nothing).

If the author don't want their work here anymore, let's respect their decision and do it without being rude to anyone. There are plenty of free works on legal platforms, or you can keep reading on sites like this, as I said before; your choice.

Also: Plz T*kT*kers stop spreading the site, let people search on their own.
