Post Please Don't Post doujin-world.com Translations.

Hello,

I recently stumbled across this torrent:

http://www.datorrents.com/torrents-details.asp?id=7960

and I was extremely shocked to see all of the doujin-world translations blatantly compiled into this single torrent.

Now everyone has their own opinion about this, but as a frequent to doujin-world's website, and a sporadic talker on their IRC channel, I have come to know that these are good people and deserve a little more respect.
They have made it clear that they oppose others taking their translated work and reposting it all over the internet, however easier that might be for the rest of you.

The webmaster of this site, known to us as Numbus, recieves under $300 monthly in donations for a service that costs well over $600, the difference comes straight out of his pockets. Spreading around the doujinshi's around the internet decreases traffic to their website, thus lowering the chance of someone signing up for HentaiKey GT, where they recieve payment in compensation, or even potential donators.

The team of translators do this service for free, or in this case, they do it at a loss. They might not be the best (I haven't seen better anywhere else), and they might not be the only, but they are one of the few rare Japanese Doujinshi translators that do the service for free.

Many a woe of those who don't seem to care is the process of downloading the finished products on IRC. Well, the intstructions are clearly posted on their site, and after about five minutes of tinkering, it becomes easy to download the translations. With a little effort, it is very possible to figure out how to do it.

I understand that many people don't give a crap about this, well it is the internet after all. But I am asking you all for a sort of a "courtesy" in this matter. I'm well aware that you might not even consider my request, but what is the harm in trying.

Best Regards,
Shadowstriker00

Hi,

the torrent you have posted is actually an external one, and is not hosted directly on this site. I will bring this to the attention of some of the higher ups, although I'm not sure they will do anything without direct intervention from the site owner.

I second that. It's a similar situation we had with Ever17.
Please would you let whoever involved, Numbus you call him?, that he's welcome to come and speak to us about this matter if he wishes.

Alrighty, im sick, i have an ear infection and a migrane and im on codine... but here we go!
A. Ive never heard of this guy or his work, and if thats how he feels about it he is MORE than welcome to PM me about it and we will resolve the issue.
B. DaTorrents makes ZERO profit so dont really expect me to feel all that sorry for him. None of you bother donating to us and we have been trying very hard to keep this site ad free for YOUR own benifit. DaTorrents pays for its server and its software. You talk about "courtesy". Guess what honey, we are all in the same boat. So dont bring that to me like im going to feel bad... cuz im not. My staff and I get ZERO out of running datorrents, yet we do it anyways as a benifit to the anime community that we love so much. This is our CONTRIBUTION to the anime community that we try to keep this thing afloat with out running nasty ads everywhich way. At BEST we get about ~20 dollars a month in donation, if hes getting 300 hes way ahead of us so yeah, do me a favor and go take your sad little story elsewhere. If the owner wants to try and discuss it with me he is MORE than welcome to, again i WILL work with him to resolve the issue or come to a agreement, but as for now, it stays as is, your sob story dear sir, FAILS.

Thanks!
