ゴメンナサイ

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

this. if you're a fan translator with no actual permission from the original artist you don't get to be picky about what happens to "your" stuff

then they should probably own up to the fact that they're doing something illegal to begin with

* shares at least one or two (preferably more) interests with me. preferably regarding characters that we play.
* is willing to play dumb ships with me, doesn't have to play the other half of my otp but that's a bonus.
* is willing to tag at least once a week, preferably daily.
* is ic "enough," it's okay if they're just average, as long as their character is recognizable.
* open to aus, no matter how dumb (you have to at least joke around with me if i suggest something silly like an extreme cheapskates au, we don't have to actually play it out.)
* that being said, has to have a dumb sense of humor like mine or is willing to tolerate my humor.
* has some ideas of their own and doesn't expect me to think of everything.
* can have health/mental problems, as long as they don't make it my business when i don't wanna talk about it.
* is mature
* doesn't necessarily have to be my new bestie, as long as we're on good terms and willing to chat every once in a while about things that aren't rp-related.
* optional, but if we could talk new anime or shows, that would be fun.
* is not a neckbeard. i say this as a male roleplayer. don't wanna associate with their ilk.

Hey kiddos. Anyone want a month's worth of paid time?

I just got paid today and I'm feeling generous. The first 5 people to respond to this comment will get a month's worth of paid time courtesy of Daddy Morrison.

It should be obvious since this is posted in the Overwatch canon thread but Overwatch accounts only please!

Prefacing this with a "I do solo scanlations."

No, there isn't.

If you post it, they'll be uploaded to manga websites when someone finds them. It's super easy to rip images from pdfs. Hell, it's easy to take kindle store manga/comics/books and rip all the pages in 2 minutes or less. It doesn't matter if most people are too lazy/don't know how. All it takes is one person.

And obviously watermarks aren't going to stop people. They want to know what's going on with the story; they don't care who did it except to know where to go for more. Personally, unless the person made the characters/series themselves, ie it isn't a doujin of an existing canon, then I don't think they should be using watermarks. Watermarks imply you made it. Scanning, typesetting, translating etc... Yeah, you did the work but it's not "yours." No, not even the translation is yours because even if you did it yourself, you don't own the rights to the original text.

So yeah, if you don't want it spreading everywhere, don't post it publicly. And even then, don't post it anywhere if you want to be sure it won't be reposted elsewhere, but then why bother working on it, right?

tl;dr Your friend is doing something illegal, and your friend's group has no right to complain how their illegal scans are used. Similarly, doujin authors/artists don't have a right to complain if their work is based on someone else's existing work they don't have the rights to.

maladjusted titbabies screaming and verbally abusing people because their followers didn't read their faq to determine what posts could or could not be reblogged from their account

there should be a special place in internet hell for these people
