Post by: Xye on December 11, 2009, 17:57
 >:( Scanlation can really get to you...  :omg:;;

haha i've been reading lots of mangas...
and All I could see was over-leveled pages, uncropped borders, untranslated SFX, White NOT white...and the most hateful of all...BLACK NOT BLACK  *dead Haha

oh yeah!
When I was translating from the raw scans, I felt myself slowly going crazy.

It's nice to know that ours will be super clean and nice  :love:

LOL that happens to me a lot. It's not even funny how we can pick up the mistakes so fast =P
and for some reason when we read online the scans looks lower quality so I try to download them from the groups (but I have a limited gb use every month)... ><

lolz, at least for manhwa's and manga's (I can't for manhuas!!! T.T - *starts to go learn chinese*) i usually stick to RAWS because I know I won't be happy with translations xD

Yeah, but that's because you understand it, but what do we do? The ones deprived of the ability or desire to learn chinese, japanese or korean?

See? Xye freaks too.
*giggles hysterically.
GIVE ME PIE.

*cough. Yes, it gets to me.
All that happens these days is me going back and forth between manga series, comparing my
typesetting to there's. This really isn't healthy for me.
ESPECIALLY WHEN Xye GIVES ME CRAPPY CHINESE RAWS.
O___o Must pinch Ruraine more.

o.O I saw my name. Why am I getting pinched?

But yeah. Scanlation. Even when I'm not the one doing it, seeing tons of untranslated small text and SFX makes me feel sad. Graphics don't annoy me as much---unless the scanlating group literally pasted their translations ON TOP OF the text in the raws, and you can see a bit poking out here and there. Ugh.

lol, this thread is so old! XD Are any of the newer staffers bothered as well?
It's just been getting worse and worse for me...I hardly even read shoujo manga anymore.
Well, at least it's opened up new genres to me >_> hurhur

Scanlation has made be outrageously biased too. I now harbor an intense hatred for the leechers...and a love of whining~ <3

I hate reading manga pages that are over dodged... Even if a story is interesting it the cleaning is not good I stop reading and go find something else to read...

T_T I FEEL THE SAME!! D: i hate it when they're UNDER dodged too...
the sad thing is that readers don't care as much as we do...no. they don't even notice!  :omg:

Before i became a cleaner I stoped reading a manga because the quality was so bad... It was like i was reading the raw  >:(

Post by: kurobani on September 27, 2011, 07:43
Ooh, totally!
Instead of reading the manga, I'll be going 'This text isn't centered!' or 'This is way to over-levelled!'.  >:(
Aah, the sacrifices scanlators have to make...  :'(
