DON

If we put ih YD's shoes, I'll probably do what he did.

But for us readers, it really sucks. I guess I'll just respect YD's decision.

Yeah and when u tell them to stop they would just answer "we're just having fun" I get that it's kinda "fun"...and that's cuz we're not directly involved. It's not yalls life are getting threatened or getting sued. Not only is it nasty it's also "childish" which makes look an easy target to yd and her minions.(〜￣△￣)〜

Honestly i wish they would stop. Not saying what YD did wasnt bad but like going as far as literally shitting on them non stop????? yea i think no ones really winning here,,,, its just a mess

I mean if I was a author I would be mad too but this situation really won't help them much...I dont know what to think about this situation... The only thing I know is that if mangago goes down I might stop reading altogether....

I’m in no one’s side to be honest. The way the uploader handled it, and considering they were the one who illegally posted it in the first place, you would expect them to apologize. But instead of actually apologizing, the uploader sounded like they brushed off YD’s complaints, removed the manga and called it a day. Wouldn’t you be as annoyed as YD when someone steal’s your work, gathers more views than your original work, and at the end you get told by the illegal uploader to “remove it yourself then” instead of apologizing?

As for YD, I understand her position to be frustrated but I think she also handled it very poorly. She should’ve contacted actual professionals to sue and gather info about the uploader, but instead she took advantage of her position as a known-author by using her fans to dox the said uploader. And considering her works are quite.... questionable, I don’t really support her in the first place but I didn’t really care if she’d sue or not

And YD getting hate from mangago users wasnt really far-fetched since I heard that she used suicide to make herself a victim. Does she deserve the hate? Not really since it’ll make the problem look bigger than it already it, but it was bound to be thrown at her anyways. I’m still quite surprised that people were with the uploader’s side as well from what I saw in Twitter

Yeah it's sad honestly if anyone were in YD's place they would also be pissed at it but the way of handling this situation is really really unprofessional tbh YD could have just solved this drama privately and professionally but it just seems like a fight between kindergartenrs ┑(￣Д ￣)┍

I super agree with you. I saw the situation and just felt super stressed and concluded that everyone in there is just plain childish and nasty. Im kinda upset of how YD handled it. So much more people wouldve been on their side if they didnt stoop so low. I wouldve defended them. Oh well, but here we are....

YD could have handled it a lot better, what he did was just childish and Ip address, bounty seriously?? He didn’t even tried to listen what uploader was trying to say, and now black list, seriously? Is he an actual child? Author is nasty so of course other people will be the same, if he would have handle it better way then the outcome would be different. He has to stay professional bc us read/ buy his work so after this i’m pretty sure he lost a lot legal readers of how he handled the situation, Idk ab you guy but i dont even want to support his work anymore not bc its bad no, its really good and interesting but after this drama, just dont wanna spend my money nor my week coins on his childish ass. (Theres always raws after all) Maybe im childish xd idk

mmm i see where youre coming from and wish for the same honestly. I wished that YD handled this in a better way and its so frustrating. I would like to say so much more stuff but honestly it just boils down to "YD nasty and so are the people coming after them" its a trainwreck of a situation.

I agree but when i put myself on their shoes you realize theres really nothing you can do in that situation. The copyright law has so much holes in it and can only really protect someone who has the time and money and dedication to sue a site thats not even based in korea. Its really frustrating and sad. This is why when authors ask us to take down stories, we really shouldnt complain. Sure it sucks but we have to remember that making comics are a livelihood. This is how they sustain themselves and were taking that away from them. I honestly wishm, from the bottom of my heart that the situation didnt have to come to this. it just makes me sad :((

True they really shouldn't have made this public everyone just randomly picked sides :((
