Freeze on public projects....

Feb 24, 2008 13:24

You can all thank the unknown person who reported to baka-updates that I did Saver 2-4 for the fact that I will no longer make any of my licensed projects available to the public again. At the very least, everything will be friend-locked, except for the unlicensed raws I have up. Unlicensed works are a completely different deal then the licensed ( Read more... )

You can always contact Baka-Updates and ask them to remove your link and info.

It's okay, I understand your POV. :/ With all of the copyrights and such...
Perhaps you could've stated that when you posted Saver 2-4? :/

Anyways, I hope things will go better for you and hope this incident won't repeat itself. ^^

I'm going to, so hopefully it'll be taken care of and the info removed soon. I have said it before, why I did't want these spread all over, so if they had put some thought into it, they shoud've realized that if I didn't want the files shared everywhere and specifically said so and why, then there's no way I'd want my name and LJ posted in such a public manner. If that was something I wanted, I'd have done it myself. I'll get over it, luckily I'm quick-tempered, but it blows over soon. And like I said, technically they did as I requested, they didn't post the files, but referred people to me in one heck of a big way.( I'm actually starting to find the humour in this!)

I'm perking up, like I said in another comment, I'm starting to find the humour in it I guess. It's kinda funny, I've had like 10 or more people friend me in just the last couple of hours alone! Oh well, I hopefully get it fixed after I contact baka-updates. Thanks for the kind thoughts, I appreciate it a lot.

I kinda of like what you are doing and appreciate it too. I just find a bit hard that US licensed book cost ~$10 when a Chinese version cost ~$2 (this is with shipping). However, do to the fact that I move around a lot (money goes to such expenses) and I lost touch with my native languages - so I can only read English. And after reading your comment, I find it humorous b/c I picked up Saver simply I saw your post on Baka-updates or I would not have noticed such a great story.

I know what you mean, there's been several series I've found thru baka-updates that I wouldn't have known about otherwise, only difference is, they weren't licensed, that's the problem. I'm really glad that people like Saver, and that's why I started doing it, was to share it with others because I liked it so much. I just am very uncomfortable with it now being so very public that I've been doing it because of possible legal issues. We all know that there are total jerks out there who seem to have nothing better to do reporting people for sharing licensed works and I really just don't want any problems. Glad you like it tho! I do hope you enjoy it, that's the whole idea behind me sharing in the first place.

Thanks for thinking of me, I just got done sending a message to a mod at baka-updates asking for my info to be taken down, so hopefully it'll be taken care of soon. Thanks again!

If it makes you feel any better, CatChanScans already scanned Volume 1-3 of Saver. You can find it where CatChanScans are normally found. The Mangaupdates post is how I found you. Gomen. Nice to meet you anyways :)

I know, she does great work! I didn't scan them, I used raws up until the middle of vol 4 and started doing it as a pet project last year. It's nice to meet you too, no matter how you found me. Hope you enjoy what I have up anyways.
