If you want 50x the amount of stories (and 500x the amount of original stories) along with far more varied genres of storytelling and art style, then you'd read manga.
It looks like you don't, and that's your business, but many of us do, and we like having access to this genre, especially when there aren't any official releases of said manga in our countries.

Is there any confirmation on it actually being shutdown permanently, or the admin being arrested? Seems farfetched. Especially considering it's been constantly down recently.

It's over
Now what?
>>133496526
Obviously not that.
>>133495945
The entire concept was stupid anyway. It was literally "let's make a secret club on the internet but somehow not expect it to spread, on the internet.
Set up your own server among a few close friends if you want this concept to work in practice. But that's no possible, since these things are usually created and influenced by people who huge egos in desperate need of e-points.
>>133496381
And that's all fine and good, I never said I had some complex or some hatred for people enjoying the medium, I hated it, but that doesn't mean you guys can't enjoy it.
I was only calling out that faggot for being elitist in an imageborad for weeaboo losers, it's like declaring yourself king of turd mountain and claiming it's got any sort of power other than the fact you're standing in a pile of shit.
>>133496526

>>133496547
Thought they didn't have a bunch of licensed stuff though. You can hope someone keeps a copy of the database.
>>133496568
It was only supposed to be temporary until the MT replacement came up. Which, of course, never happened.
I've never even heard of madokami, what was it?
how does it change the fact that a zillion manga-hosting sites still exist?
So what happened to that distributed manga storage thing we were working on when manga traders went down 1-2 years ago?
>>133496615
They did have some licensed novels, at least.
>>133496630
>how does it change the fact that a zillion manga-hosting sites still exist?
because none of them have half of what madokami had
>>133496578
>I'm not an elitist like these losers so I'm so much better than them
Hail king of turd mountain
It wasn't taken down due to content, just due to admin being a murderer. Someone else will put up something similar I'm sure. People need to stop freaking out over the secret aspect of it and worry about getting back ups ready for whoever hosts it next.
>>133496630
We don't like watermarked downscaled pages where you can barely make out the text among all the jpg artifacts.

>Tokyopop still haunts the scanlation scene years after their demise
How many fucking series are there that we ONLY have shitty old TP scans for?
>>133496630
It wasn't just about manga. There were a lot of LNs there that weren't hosted anywhere else.
>>133496633
The people with full copies never did anything.
To be honest, Madokami worked well enough that it may have seemed unnecessary to them.
blue, woxxy, and hakase each have a copy. I don't know who else did
>>133496675
>this huge exaggeration
Shit happened, it's over. Let's get down to business.
Does anyone have a backup? Or is anyone willing to make a similar site for people to upload their collections?
>>133496712
blue repeatedly said that he is simply too incompetent to put something up.
Somebody should lend that namefag a hand. Or a dick.
>>133496707
Like what? I had no idea there were LNs at all there.
Update needed.
>>133496666
Nice quads.
Other than that I also never said anything about not being a weeaboo myself, why are you projecting now?
Mother of fucking hell. Not fun at all.
That was the only place left where one could some series or catch up with old releases.
So I expect there's a backup somewhere? WE did in fact download most of MT back when it went down and set up madokami.
So I hope someone has it and makes a fork or something?
>>133496739
Is the admin enough of a douche to not come back and give up the database?
>>133496745
I downloaded Taimadou from Madokami a week or so ago.

>>133497255
Fuck all that shit.
This is the real tragedy.
Where else can we download manga with as much variety and as conveniently and in good quality now?
>>133497250
Because people are very likely to just stop seeding obscure manga. There's so many titles of little to know publicity that you wouldn't even notice when 20% just fell off the grid, until you tried to access them and found out that the torrents are dead.

I think this is pretty good. Maybe have a test or something to enter into the site. So pretty much like a private tracker.
>>133497367
It was private, but the "keep a secret" bullshit wasn't going to work from the beginning.
It needs to be set up like a private tracker with tests, invites, etc.
>>133497373
Were those babies involved in any immoral activities at the time of death?
Did they write any last messages with their blood?
Did they die of heart attacks?
I need details!
>>133497380
You know that the system is literally fucked up when you use Broadcasthenet instead of Animebytes for your anime. What the hell happened to the test with the upload bot?
And for manga, the system is useless. People want currently being released manga and people rarely even upload manga and the five year requirement is just asking for trouble.
>>133497223
Same. Mangafags are always complaining about stupid shit and how great it is to read 1000+ series at once that have all been publishing for 10+ years already. Glad I don't have to deal with that shit.
>>133497420
We won't get any details for at least a week. All we know is that they were wrapped in towels inside of plastic bags.

>>133497443
All of it.

Officially Bavaria is part of Germany, but other than that, no they are not.
They have a different language, they have different customs, they have a different political leadership etc.
>>133496484
The "translation" on Dowman is fucking awful. Absolutely atrocious.
The reason a lot of the strips don't make sense and seem 2deep is because the translation is incompetent.
Scanslation annoys the fuck out of me, because it is almost universally:
- a tenth of the resolution of the source material
- in grayscale as an attempt to compensate for this, even though the source was B&W
- translated by monkeys whose native language is not English*
- completely eradicates the original text, so you can't tell it was translated by monkeys
* no professional translator translates out of their native language. The hard part is not "understanding what you're reading", but "conveying what was said (and what was implied and not implying what wasn't implied) in a way others can actually understand". To do that, you need a fuck-good grasp of the language you're translating into, and "I grow up in Taiwan and I learn Japanese and English from Internet" isn't gonna cut it.

Oh boy I can't wait to be 1 month to 1 year behind in translations!

Well everyone was fucking talking about the Goddess Madoka on /a/. I never even used the site, but I damn well knew about it.

The secret aspect really isn't that important. It becoming popular isn't why it was taken down. All that matters is where its hosted. Still waiting on someone to say they have a db backup for it.

This is a legit idea.
Make it something that will get drown in other search results, something that will seem as a dangerous site and something will not be taken seriously.
Putting it behind some irc wall or trying to keep it hidden in some other clever way didn't work, people will just post the instructions out there or ask how to get it done and contrary to popular belief people are not as stupid as we think, they could figure out madokami after all.
Instead we need to hide in plain sight.
>>133498512
>The hard part is keeping it /a/ related.
Why? If they do not see any connection it will be better
So there was no contingency plan? Any back up files that others on the site may have possibly had? If anything we can make a private domain and be able to start a new site and have it functioning like the old one.
>>133498236

>>133498658
The lack of api means it's just hard to do that from there and then I have to go get the file from some random blog. It's not uniform enough to do it dynamically.
Madokami had an ftp which would be easier to integrate with, I think anyway I didn't go too far into it before saying "I don't believe the time spent on this won't just disappear one day".

This is such a spot on impersonation of exactly the kind of attitude that ruins everything good that I'm not sure.
Are you serious or being satire?
Obviously anyone doing self destructive shit will hurt himself, and in cases like this one those consequences will also hurt others.
Nice things are made by many people under the mutual understanding of being responsible to keep those nice things nice, to protect them.
Those who disregard basic caution and act irresponsibly are the reason all nice things come to an end for everyone.
They're the definition of a parasite, a cancer, a damaging element that will destroy itself and bring everyone else down.
>>133498673
If anything. They should lay low for awhile and possibly go on a private ip or a proxy server. Tors can probably work but they would need something more secure.
And just yesterday I repeated that another SPOF would fuck us over. Don't say that people didn't say so. Fucking imbeciles. Some of the shit I uploaded, I'm not sure I can easily retrieve again. Let's hope I still have them.
>>133498673
Scared of what? The site didn't go down due to anything copyright related. If they don't know how to make a new site, put that shit up in a torrent or mega and let someone else download it and take a stab at rebuilding
>>133496957
>I'm sure the site is dead because other reasons

>I never know what happened but I can't say that the admin wasnt arrest. No proof of course, i'm just a faggot
>>133498773
No, I'd make it benign rather than offensive.
If it's offensive, it might get taken down just for that. Again, funny cat video.
>>133498647
I remember seeing screenshots from facebook and reddit recommending madokami some days after being created.
>>133498695
"Professional" is certainly not a word I'd use to describe their work.
I don't think this has anything to do with copyright. It sounds like the admin was a dipshit who hosted loli in a country where it was illegal and got busted.
>>133498294
Madokami grew to be 2x the size of the original MT archive which was about 1.7TB. I got someone to go on madokami scrapping duty a few days after mentioning how much this bothers me, but he was only able to pull half a terabyte. I really tried but I couldn't pull through this time.
I think you're going to be hard pressed to find someone who has done this. Someone even went and called me "defeatist" the last time I talked about making sure we had better backups. And even if there WAS a person who managed to archive it all, I don't even think they'd make it public to /a/.
So basically nobody has any evidence that anything is wrong beyond the site being down?
Keep being retarded, /a/.
>>133498673
Flood it on Usenet.
Then everyone has a backup.
>>133498607
I had way too little to be of much help, but if we can't find a full or big enough backup we will have the rebuild it from scraps. Set up some doc list were anons register what series/releases/volumes/chapters they have.
>>133497050
Well, I have a lot of downloaded manga but the site was simple enough to find new things and keep tracking ongoing/non-complete series.
>>133496957
>It's pointless if he goes to jail without publicity.
But there is publicity about it right here right now and it is targetted directly at the people that matter.
how much does it cost to keep something like Madokami running every month?
>>133498747
Blame the scene for that. They never got organized the way the anime scene did.
>>133498859
There might be a case of being able to host those files but keep that private here. If anything happens we should domain in private.

The real problem are the shitty reddit lurkers who are here waiting for a solution and for extra points in their blogs instead or finding a way to kill themselves.
>>133498859
4 TB isn't even that much.
Should have had a backup.
>>133498985
I think this would have happened regardless of how secret it was. The admin got arrested for loli.
>>133495766
What especially sucks is that people such as Blue donated $1800 to help get things going with that original database transfer from mangatraders. Now those people who kept on publicly mentioning madokami on forums and social media sites have their wish come true - people noticed the existence of madokami.
>>133498892
Works for me.
>>133498968
Torrents are low profile unfortunately in some cases. We need the back up files as soon as possible without diverting too much attention and host and communicate on private domains.

You have a point there.
It could be paranoia, in 99% of the cases it would be paranoia over a regular downtime.
But in the other 1% of the time it could be the real deal.
We've been through this before, it's better to be paranoid all the time and always ready.
When sapdanda went down the paranoia is what managed to keep us together and we helped each other spreading backups of anything that was removed and thanks to that there are now multiple options to get back that content.
We should always be prepared.
>>133496207
>Go directly to the scanlator's blogs.
Most of the time not possible even for ongoing titles because dmca killed the download links or the scanlator has dropped that title (and thus removed it from the site). Additionally, many titles are not obtainable elsewhere because there were many uploads from Hoarders' personal collections.
>>133498996
The exact content isn't the point. The point is to make the site seem to have a purpose OTHER than being a repository for porn/manga/whatever.
Make it some amateur blog site that appears to have been abandoned in 2009 or whatever. Anything that makes people doubt its true purpose.

Animebytes says otherwise. What.CD says otherwise, every private tracker says other. The system works when it's done right.
Issue one: spread whatever backups we got. A torrent should work for that. Maybe on animebytes or something so it doesnt get taken down directly.

I'm surprised it took this long for a reasonable explanation like this to pop up. Hopefully this ends up being the case.
Either way, shit like this serves as a good reminder that we have all our eggs in one basket, and that we should really figure out a way to distribute content effectively.
We cannot protect a site. We can however protect against that site's failure.
Please remember that some people live to shit on good things.
aaaaaaand the site is up.
You guys are so easy to play with.
it sucks cause site sounded convinient, but manga downloader worked for what I needed and i'll just keep using but no one has even mentioned it, why can't I get my hand held on this shit when I know way more than half the fags that get their manga spoonfed to them because they have tons of friends who share every little thing they come across until it shuts down before I even knew what it was, life isn't fair

Why don't have a torrent per series? Wouldn't that make it easier to seed? Also there was this anon who was elaborating on a way to update torrents, so you don't have to make several torrents for each chapter.

wtf is madokami. why you can't you use sites like mangafox or something

Do we know how many series Madokami hosted?
AB has about 7,100 scanlated series (8,000 raw) but it basically has no publishing series after 2011 (there's like only 300 total ongoing series in AB).
Is it really back?
>>133497353
at least they're always small, if you can sqeeze even a gigabyte out of a shitty torrent with a single seed on a private tracker that's most of the obscure stuff, really long series are going to be popular anyway so the bigger size isn't as much an issue, I know what you're trying to say that manga just never fit torrents well but I think it would be worth it to try to make it work by changing up how it's handled a little

>I've been having less hope in 4chan's autism every passing day.
instead of relying on one website as a single point of failure we should just have 1 upload site that turns things into large-ish torrents and is backed by multiple seedboxes.
If that one upload site goes down that's only a loss of recent content that hasn't been turned into torrents yet. Everything else will still be available
Interesting.
>>133499352
AB has some annoying restrictions but at least in cases when those restrictions would not get in the way why the fuck not use it?
Upload the shit that AB will accept at least and figure out the rest later.

>>133498929
It's just less popular to read manga than to read anime. So less people mean less organization required, means less people that could be a developer, less developers that might be willing to do it, etc.
The thing is if I made this app I'd lower the barrier to entry and then we'd be here again unless I made some /a/-brand DRM. There is no reason to write such a dynamic app and then not give it to /a/nons.

You are in luck. Most people archive the decent releases of well known manga. If you were interest in some obscure stuff chances are you are fucked.
Why don't we just ask Hiroyuki to read every manga aloud while simultaneously translating it in english? Then we could watch all of our favorite manga on youtube. There has to be a bright side to moot's replacement.

You can't download while the site is down. It's much simpler and more effective to simply have a singular site in the deep web.

I don't understand how Mangatraders and Madokami get raped like this, but shit like Mangafox and Mangapanda are still fine. This is not fair.
>>133500381

They're in China, so harder to take down, I suppose. And thanks to their disgusting advertising they've got money to keep going forever. They even picked up MangaTraders' URL.
>>133500430
this
>>133500381
It's really absurd.
They're the ones with the biggest audience, the one which might bother buying shit if they couldn't get it, and they actually advertise and profit a lot while fucking up all the shit they have with the watermarks.
They make the manga look bad while profiting off it and taking most of the audience of potential buyers, and instead they get the smaller sites with a niche audience of cheap shits and no profits.

I didn't say it was mangafox's main flaw either
"Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiz."
>>133500374
But wouldn't that still give the feds something easy to target?
As for timing, something like two servers each with 2/3 of the total library kept up at any given time and any new download requests get redirected to the the newer server once it goes up.
Even the biggest file hosted shouldn't be more than a couple hundred mbs and having the uptime be something like one or two days at a time should give plenty of time to download.
Ask Hiro for a new filter/autoban for those sponfeeders
>>133500621
well, anons have never been good operating in secret. decentralized yes, secret no
>>133500682
More like ask him for a server.
Again, there is nothing to suggest the site is down due to content. Obsessing over secrecy is pointless right now.

Look on the bright side, most of the new content are just Batoto/Kissmanga/duplicate rips. You didn't really lose anything, except for the original content uploads such as raws, etc.
If someone has a cop, it can rise again, with a more competent admin who actually knows how to keep it a secret.

This is a joke right
There are a few who have archive copies, right? Just start over from last year. You just lose some raws and some HQ Italian scans.
The bot was poorly designed, most of the new terabytes are just bloat because it rips the same chapter 5 times from different sites.
Maybe we should just go back do DC. I heard /co/fags use that for their comics.

Also, make a happening hoax and shut down the frontpage every few weeks. Newfags and retards will go elsewhere.

All right, Blue, time to save us once again. You don't have to do anything, just slowly distribute your archive copy however you want to. You don't need to build a site or anything. Just make that torrent, like we've been trying to do for the past 2 years anyway.

>A CHINESE VOICE ACTRESS DIED IM LITERALLY CRYING
If anyone ever makes a replacement site, they should set it up so if you you have a referer header from something like reddit or facebook, you get the ban
>Madokami ded
God, why?
>>133502368
I hope you aren't surprised by this.
>>133502107
France thing will be forgotten in a couple of months
Madokami being down will be forever sad.
>>133502368
Here's your reply, faget.
>>133502407
ebin
>Fufu is down
Sorry, 10 people who used that dead chan clone.
>okawus joins IRC
Its time
>>133502431
This is /a/ - Anime & Manga, no one cares about france.
Now fuck off.
>admin joins irc
>doesn't answer questions on what happened to the site
>>133502483
he did say who his favorite k-on was
Fucking DAIZ
I didnt know you could access IRC channels from prison.
>>133502169
This is your regular /a/ user.
>>133502516
Priorities :^)
People making a thread every time something happened to the site probably didn't help.
When it was first created it was mostly ftp and you had to get a password. Why did they open it up if they were scared of legal shit?
>>133502361
>admin went to a rock concert
>hostages taken at rock concert
Give up anon, the admin is never coming back and there is no way to get a copy of the database.
>>133502527
seemed like an important question t b h
>>133502521
IRC is the real prison.
He is obiovusly chatting about the problem with the regulars.
No the 300 secondaries crowding the channel.
>>133502553
this desu senpai
What do you guys think about a site like これはシークレットクラブ.みんな ? The link should help to scare some people away, since it changes to xn--28jwc6dpga0c3eubxi2h3a4q.xn--q9jyb4c in the browser.
>>133502481
Yeah neither do I, but I care a hell of a lot less about some pampered voice actress that died in a hospital bed than 150 people that got murdered in the streets and in a theater.
>>133502576
If you want to scare away low effort leechers just host it on Tor/I2P.
[22:12] <&okawus> Okay so, hosting has expires and I don't plan to renew it. OVH will delete all of the data in 5 days (probably 4 now), so if there is anyone wanting to take over the website(s) then you have until then.
>>133502537
You always had to get a password, but that won't keep Reddit out.

i can do it too
>>133502605
Holy shit it's MangaTraders all over again
>>133502618
Let blue pay forlel
>>133502605
>>133502618
>>133502622
But he was in Jail because of reddit!
>>133502614
There's hope!

Wow it's like we're all lurking the same IRC channel.
>>133502605
Blue, we need you and your nerd bux, Bluuuuuuuueeeeee
>everyone reposting shit
You are the problem.
>>133502605
>>133502618
>I don't plan to renew it
Is this seriously what happened? He's just ditching it?
Is anyone going to even bother grabbing it? His stupid bot uploaded terabytes of duplicates.
SAVE US, BLUE
>>133502592
I don't.
One game me entertainment. The other 150 gave me nothing.
>>133502614
Ah, fuck them then. I'm not into downloading mangoes so didn't know the situation.
>>133497794
YOU.
>£60/month
Its fucking nothing
>>133502669
Shit's probably expensive, I don't blame anyone for bailing on it if they can't afford it.
>>133502677
>Crying for 60 pound a month
What a fcking faggot
>>133502592
You only care about those people because it's the most popular news, people gets killed every fucking day reddit.
The death of a VA is important because it's related to anime and people can get close to them because they hear her voice while enjoying the show.
IT ALRIGHT
>>133502669
>what a cunt he's not willing to spend 60£ every month anymore
> <&okawus> Hosting currently costs £60/month, but I've ran it for almost half that successfully in the past
> <&okawus> Obviouslly whoever wants the data will need to renew it for a month to get the data out
There is hope
Okay, so whoever is hosting it next needs to make it more secretclub just as a precaution.
>>133502674
Well, it looks like we think differently.
>select all images with an auditorium
>>133502699
Doubt it's the money, I bet they're just sick of the general effort it takes to keep the site up.
Did he say why he won't be continuing? Is 60 too much for him at the moment or something?
>>133502701
91 real dollars a month is a lot if he's not really getting anything out of it himself except for threads like this.
Okawus did not GET ARRESTED FOR LOLI in 2015.
>how can you join IRC from jail
Shots fired
>>133502709
> 60£
He shouldn't have hosted a DDL server if he's that much of a poorfag. His brief efforts are very appreciated, though, RIP.
If anything should be grabbed, it's the CR/Viz/etc. rips. Ignore the Batoto/Kissmanga duplicates that his stupid bot made.
So will we actually back shit up after someone else hopefully gets all of the data back online?
Ask him why he just doesn't beg for upkeep donations. Seemed to work for MT back in the day
>>133502773
Nah, ill just let some other faggot do it.
>>133502773
other people in the channel want to take over the site and they will
just sit back and wait now
>>133497420
They were hosting manga
>>133502755
Now we just need for someone to come out and say Imperial Scans shutting down and the Paris attack are just anon's panicky exaggerations too.
><Lord-Simon> Eh... If I remember it correctly, the donations covered the server costs completely.
>>133502773
I'll go into a feverish download frenzy if Madokami comes back up, that's for sure. Gotta have that backlog to fall back on.
>>133502800
one of them is Blue and look at how successful he was with his MT copy
>>133502745
no it's just that if he asked im sure that everyone would have given him money, if everyone in this thread gave him a buck it would have been over
Can't wait to see how it dies again in a couple years.
>>133502814
beaufitul
>>133502710
yeah, i'm sure this is the reason. One day without warning he just dont paid anymore. Perfect sense.
>>133502769
I enjoyed the bot, meant less work for me.
>>133502821
At least Blue is willing to throw money at the problem, that's more already than most anons can claim.
>>133502835
download everything and make personal copies this time
>>133502854
It was fine except for grabbing the same chapter 5 times over from LQ sources.
>>133502800
>just sit back and wait now
or chip in if necessary
Happy is KungGao
>>133502814
Oh boy.
Well, that is one tragedy averted. Good thing nothing bad happened today.
>>133502892
>paying for things

if nobody does then shit will certainly go down the drain

Spare me. I succeeded in everything I said I would do. Ask the others who said they'd put out archives and torrents and shit about they're part. Really, I don't care who it goes to. As long as it stands for one more month, it should be enough time to grab things from it.

Agiri's voice actress also got arrested over cocaine charges.

May as well, even though thread will be dead in minutes.
