Lmao what. Sorry, but Manga-Abyss doesn't own Pandora Hearts; if anything you should call all of us out for scanlating when Broccoli Books has got the license and it's their job. And by all of us I mean all three groups. If you haven't noticed, Storm in Heaven is scanlating it too. Why don't you go bother them? We're doing this because we like the manga, and we want to share it, and we're having fun doing this by ourselves because it's all casual. We're really doing this for us and deciding to share it with everyone else.

By the way, the declaration of "winning" was in no way gloating over releasing the chapter before Manga-Abyss. It was us celebrating because we finally got the thing out despite a lot of setbacks and staying up way too late, and because we're hyperactive nerds who are doing this for the fun of it. Give us a break.

Just to add some more precision, Storm in heaven dropped PH a long time ago ^^"
True MA doesn't own it, and it is licensed, they already took the risk of not dropping it but all the reward they get is having a newbie group trying to waste all the time they spent working on it?
"We're really doing this for us and deciding to share it with everyone else" is the reason you get everytime a new group pops up stealing other established groups' projects. Let me warn you that you will be very pleased once that happen to your group as well =D

So have fun scanlating, just try to understand that if you enter the scanlating world, there are rules that you're supposed to follow.

Just a question: are you speaking for them? It's kind of you to come and teach us the laws of the scanlating world, but "we're really doing this for us and deciding to share it with everyone else" pretty much says it all. If another group decides (let's use your terminology) to 'steal' 'our' project, then so be it.

Rules of the scanlating world, right. This is the Internet.

Lain already said so, but the reasons we gave for doing this are true, no matter what you say about them. Even if nobody else downloaded it, we'd probably still do it, because we want to know what happens, too, and this project is good practice for all of us.

Much as I'd love to fight it out with you, I'd rather this not get out of hand. I'm freezing the thread. Feel free to try again when you feel a little less accusatory.

Just to add some precision, the "WE WOOOOOON" thing is actually a reference to another manga.

*facepalms*

Oh god you guys, look. Scanlation wank. :'3

Look, Little Miss Miffed, Manga Abyss doesn't own Pandora Hearts and aren't the only ones who are allowed to scanlate it. Most series have multiple scanlation groups working on them, and it's up to the downloader to decide which they want. I'm sorry if that puts your panties in a twist, but there's no ~*~backstabbing~*~ going on here. These girls doesn't owe their allegiance to Manga Abyss just because Manga Abyss was "in first" or something. This isn't Kindergarten.

FYI, there's no such thing as "scanlation laws" and unless we're talking plagiarism, there's no such thing as "project theft". Manga Abyss and Experimental Trap can both do this project simultaneously. Shocking, I know.
