She's baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack
natsukigirl has returned with another topic guaranteed to spark as much wank as the previous one.

This time we've got scanlations

My favorite part is when she says that she trusts fan translators as much as "official" ones (quotation marks hers). Umm...since she's a fan and doing her own translation, isn't that sort of...argh...brain hurting too much from insane asshat fan logic.

Oh and she "humbly" tells us that she's not an elitist. Oh, except under very specific circumstances. Isn't there a law of some sort about that?

Edit: Now she's gone to mock_the_stupid to try and garner support.

Another Edit: Since she's made the mock_the_stupid post friends only, I'll C&P it here so you don't have to join up to read.

Greed AND Stupidity

This is kind of a drawn out thing, and its very current, so if you feel like heavy reading, then this might be a good boredom-killer. This isn't so much funny as it is shockingly stupid:

The topic was scanlations. Scanlations are when you (someone without licence or copyright) scan every single page of a comic book (by someone else), plug in a translation, and publish the whole shee-bang online. Not only is it illegal, it is also highly immoral, as you can well imagine.

But guess what, apparantly half the people over at manga think that it is moral.

"Just because it's illegal doesn't make it immoral!" ... holy. hell.

Stupidity? I'd say so, have a look see. (the main post is by me, the stupidity is scattered around in the comments)

One more Edit for fun: When she finally responded to my comment in manga I tore up her arguements, including pointing out that posting to mock_the_stupid kind of indicates that she thinks people who disagree with her are stupid. So naturally she went over and deleted the post at m_t_s. But I posted the text of the post there at Manga so either she'll delete the post there too, or things will get wanky when the rest of the community notices.
