Crack when?

Huh. Didn't notice until I checked just now, but it seems Pure Pure ain't quite dead.

What is consensus on Imo Para? I haven't heard much from anyone about if it's good or not.

>>12409416
From what I've seen they do just little bit once a year and then they disappear.

>>12409384
>Clannad - picked up
Are they translating it though or just using the awful one?

>>12409479
using the awful one

>>12409479
>>12409490
Sekai Project - Ruining visual novels one step at a time.

>>12409490
Got kind of excited there for a second.

>>12409505
Don't worry. They're having Doki edit it.

It'll have TheClannadMan's seal of quality.

>>12409514
I mean, even if Doki were really great, the original baka-tsuki translation is so awful they'd have to redo virtually every halfway-complex line.

The first thing I would have done "taking over" that project is delete the scripts entirely and start from scratch

>>12409533
Tell Dovac that.

>>12409540
Maybe that will be the highest Kickstarter pledge tier.

>>12409490
>>12409479
>using the awful one
This can't be. Shouldn't someone like. Get in contact with Key or something? I don't know.
Why aren't actually translating it anew?

>>12409570
It's sad because I can already see him making it. "We found out the translation was worse than expected, and in order to give it the proper respect it deserves, please give me $100,000. If you're a true fan who wants to support real translation, you'd give it to me."

How long is he going to keep crying poverty anyway? He took $25,000 to translate a fucking pamphlet on headphones.

879KB, 799x600px

???????????????????????

This is the translation they're using.

>>12409620
They're pretty obviously in contact with Key given it's licensed on steam

>>12409620
Because Sekai Project and Dovac are too good to translate anything. They'll just keep leeching off of us for money while not giving anything back to the industry and instead just release VNs we've had access to for years all while promoting the niche amongst normalfags.

Make sure you contribute to their kickstarter scam though :3 Because making money solely from revenue isn't good enough for Dovac

>>12409641

I usually like to give people the benefit of the doubt, but that's just horrible. Out of curiosity, I put the line into google translate just to see if that's where they got it from, and it gave me this: "The Stretch out your wings to forget that the exam is the 1st today". At least "stretch out your wings" is closer to the meaning than fucking "bring a feather".

>>12409664
Didn't they translated Shiny Days for Jast and aren't they going to translate WEE?

Also I consider getting Grisaia licensed giving back to the community.

I don't care about them using kickstarted but I'm still disappointed about them using a bad translation for Clannad. Not sure why they would think that would be acceptable. Hopefully they take the negative feedback they're sure to get and reconsider.

>>12409620
>>12409664

Maybe Dovac is actually a clever businessman. He realizes that the idiots on Steam have no way to discern whether or not a translation is good, so it doesn't matter if Sekai Project reuses crappy fan translations in their projects. Just edit them a little to make them sound alright, and then toss them on Steam to collect money from the type of people who bought Sakura Spirit or whatever it's called.

If they're using Doki to touch up the Clannad translation, then I'm guessing Little Busters is next on the list to bring over.

Well, the people handling the translation at Doki had nothing to do with the terrible translation currently available.

But they're still using that one as a base, apparently. Burn it to the ground and start from scratch.

>>12409735
Hi there, sports fan. Batman here.

Can assure you that WEE is being translated and quite well indeed.

Just a few days ago after reading up on a bit of real estate market theory I found myself needing to compare how call options are usually paid out like dividends when their expected value exceeds the initial call pay-in.

This Hasekura fellow sure did his research! I'm finding his interpretation of the stock market a fantastic journey.

>>12409514
An edit pass won't cut it. The translation wasn't only poorly styled and error-ridden as far as the output language goes, it had a considerable number of guesslated lines and all too often it was a miss rather a hit. To bring the script to a passable level of accuracy it would require—at a bare minimum—a capable person who would revise the entirety of the script paying special attention to maintaining the meaning intact, and only then should it be supplemented with an edit pass.

And all that's going to happen is vanquishing the most glaring mistakes so that the script presents itself.

I believe doki was doing extensive TLC as well.

>>>12409384
>Planetarian - September 12th release
Another translation?

>>12409780
>Dovac
>clever
heheheheheheheee

If Dovac was clever he wouldn't be a drama stirring shit.

>>12409780
Maybe he will release translation route by route?

So you have to pay more money for the Tomoyo route English translation DLC

>>12410014
Maybe they'll brand After Story as a sequel.

>>12409780
You just gave me the hope for the complete EX translation ;_;

>>12410014
Then again that's exactly the business plan tailored by Key for AB.
All that fragmentation is becoming inane, you pay the instalments and you receive those small chunks of the story that you have to collect for a long period of time—and you cannot, of course, buy them all at once since they're not ready and even if they were, the reason behind such a decomposition would be overly conspicuous to allow them to flood you with all those smidgeons of the whole at once—and by the time they're all gathered you don't even remember what it was that happened those 4 years ago when the first chunk had come out.

Is this really the VNTS thread? I've never seen a VNTS thread that doesn't use the box art for a game. Also, what is the context of that image?

>>12410214
MC has food poisoning, loli can't get into bathroom so pisses herself outside the door.

>Be altruistic

>>12410341

>>12410341
I can relate to that loli.

>>12410410
You've got to do absolutely nothing with your life, just like /jp/. That way they won't get jealous.

>>12410410

>Grisaia no Kajitsu - All ages PC release based on the Vita release planned
When was this added? Does this mean Grisaia no Meikyuu is basically dead now, and if we do get a translation it will be of the all ages version?

>>12410490
Yes. Blame Dopac and his secret club for that.

>>12410583
Please tell me you are joking. I may actually kill myself. There is no reason for me to live anymore. Was this confirmed by koestl?

>>12410639
You could just learn Japanese instead of killing yourself

>>12410490
>>12410639
This was announced a VERY long time ago, dude. Let me find the article. Also, koestl still intends to do the other games last I checked, but he's busy with official VN work right now.

http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2014/07/03-1/sekai-project-announces-grisaia-no-kajitsu-and-planetarian-visual-novels

>>12410667
Thank you, but will Grisaia no Meikyuu now be released on steam and only be for all ages too? If so I might as well die. Holy shit this is from a month ago.

>>12410410
By knocking it off with the green. hint hint.

>>12410676
Finally got through the last couple months thread, Koestl twitter, and sekai projects announcements. Basically from what I understand all 3 games will most likely be released censored, but no one has officially confirmed this. Koestl just kinda pussy foots around the topic.

>>12410776
they're getting released on steam.

We know it will be released censored

>>12410786
If that is true I'm going to hunt down Koestl.

>>12409394
How much time does image editing usually takes, anyway?

>>12410776
They said that the panel they were trying to set up a way to do the 18+ content.

Probably going to have a patch floating around somewhere not on steam or give it to some group and let them distribute it for them.

>>12409646
Yes. But Dovac has almost surely oversold the quality of the translation.

How much are they going to charge for Planeterian?

It's a pretty old game and it's rather short, I can't imagine them asking more than $5.00 for it...but if they really want to be Jews I guess they could put it up for $20.00 and see how many idiots bite at that pricepoint.

>>12410979
pretty sure the price was 13.99 or something.

>>12409408
crack where?

>>12410786
We know the Steam release will be censored, however Dovac said Steam was tentatively fine with his plans to release the 18+ content elsewhere, and MangaGamer has Eden/Chou Dengeki Stryker going onto Steam all ages with an 18+ version on their website, so Steam is fine with 18+ versions being released off site. Thus the real question is will there be an uncensored in addition to the Steam release.

>>12410786
>>12411002
Thank god if there is an uncensored version I don't have to kill Koestl.

>>12410979
They said less than $10 at the panel, so probably $9.99

>>12411005
Those kind of decisions probably have nothing to do with him.

>>12411002
I read that Steam doesn't care if it has an 18+ patch off site that can be used on the game. It's no different than any other type of game "modification". I wouldn't be surprised if they sell the game as all ages on Steam and then have some DLC on their site where you put the porn back in it.

>>12410884
All projects are the same, especially when you're comparing pure VNs to ones heavily focused on strategy gameplay, so about a week.

Have you tried not playing things from years ago? Or not being an EOP?
Because most things released this month were 1280x720.

>>12414792
Yes, Japan is way behind us in terms of hardware that the average consumer has. And like >>12414825 said they're only at 720p right now while the Western standard is 1080p.

>>12414693
You sure like that /jp/ meme, don't you? Someday you'll grow up and realize that memes are boring.

It's still not 1920

>>12414853

>>12414978
I meant the standard for PC games.

>>12414978
Let us not talk about piracy here. This shit makes Mangagamer sad.

Hi I'd like to know which softhouse-seal VNs are translated?

Did sekai really just admit to breaking Kickstarter TOS?

>>12415400
You don't seem to know the Kickstarter TOS. Nice job trying to be a fag though.

>>12415472

>Can I pledge to my own project?

>Pledging to your own project is not allowed by either Kickstarter or our payments partners.

>>12415545
Uh oh. Someone didn't read the rules.

>Cartagra - demo and full version in beta
I'm....so....happy!

>>12415400

I'm pretty sure if anyone reports him he can just loophole it that it was dovac's kickstarter

>>12415665

His name was listed on the KS. It's too late at this point anyway. KS usually only takes action if it's a particularly large pledge or they get a lot of flack for it. Technically it is something a campaign could get suspended over though, so it's probably a bad idea to publicize the fact that he broke the rules like that.

Sekai Project's Kickstarter problems will likely come from the policies against multiple unfinished (as in goods not shipped yet) Kickstarters at once, rather than an inconsequential bid by someone else in the company but not running it.

>>12415781
This is probably the biggest thing. I think they've delivered on the moe headphones thing after a long delay, but they're still sitting on 2 undelivered projects, and announced at least 2 more planned kickstarters.

>>12415742
You underestimate the stupidity of virgin pirates.

>>12415931
They just got too damn greedy. Well, it was bound to happen eventually.

>>12409381
VNTS, could you include our project in your list?

>>12414978
P/A is 1920
But that is only one game and I don't expect EOP to know about it.

>>12416436
Fuck off, corntastic.

>>12416436
Cool, this is getting a translation? Always wanted to play it. Wish you guys luck with it. Hope you can find more of those translators. You should kick that corntastic guy off your team, though. Some guy keeps posting here telling him to fuck off, so I assume he's pretty bad. He looks easily replaceable anyway.

not him, but could you give more specifics ?
what exactly did he do?

I am curious

>>12417232
I think he's just some whiny IRC elitist that never really accomplishes anything but does the bare minimum to pretend he's relevant, like Moogy.

>>12417248
But Moogy actually translated something and participated in projects. Corntastic is literally useless. I dunno why you guys would give attention to him though.

Fun fact: Doddler will never become a full-time worker at Mangagamer corporations because of our piracy of their games

>>12417422
fuck my english

>>12417424
>>12417422

Why does people pirating stuff have anything to do with Doddler?

>>12417422
Don't worry, MG will switch to Steam-only releases and earn millions from selling all-age stuff.

>>12417439
No money available for paying a decent wage

>>12417422
Mangagamer shouldn't set such ridiculous prices then

>>12417292
We don't even know that Moogy actually translated Dra-Koi, a lot of people are thinking that it was Ixrec. So that makes Moogy just as useless and worth no attention.

>>12417490
>a lot of people
You shouldn't call yourself "a lot of people", people will assume you have schizophrenia if you do.

>>12417523
Yeah, I'm sure you'd like to think it's just one person that found out your secret, Moogy. The latest evidence is not in your favor.

Didn't moogy do the Clannad translation Sekai Project is going to use?

>>12417541
Moogy hates Key and didn't even read any of their games except Rewrite.

>>12417541
Yes.

>>12417550
Why is it that the most vocal haters always happen to be the ones who don't know shit about what they're hating?

>>12411268
Really? I went over to their page last week and it was staled since last year.

>>12418767
On their status spread sheet, roughly 4000 lines were added during the last month or so, and the TLWiki page was updated with a new translator.

>>12418790
That's good to know, I guess I missed that spread sheet somehow. I finished the main routes last week and really want to read EX now, I'm glad that they are still working on it.

Wait.
Did they really censor the word omanko and ochinchin? They censored the lewd words in a game about guy fucking his 9~ old sisters?
Japan, pls

>>12419034
They do that in pretty much every eroge. For me, it sounds weirder when they don't.

>>12419049
Hm, they didn't in VNs I played. And I never saw hentai with words censor

>>12419063
Some doujin games don't censor them, but I've only played maybe one or two professional games that didn't. There are some, like Monobeno, where the censorship is so subtle that you don't even notice it unless you're listening for it. Granted, I rarely play nukige, so maybe it's more common to leave them uncensored in those.

Japan is weird about censorship in general. My favorite was in Subahibi where they bleeped out the word ???. The game is filled with graphic rape, drugs, bestiality, and all kinds of other things, but calling someone a lunatic? Now that's just going too far.

>>12419141
Rape is one thing, but there's no reason to be impolite.

Can somebody please reupload the SubaHibi leaked patch?

>>12419199
No.

>>12419199
Subahibi is too good a game to spoil the experience by using an unedited partial patch. Just wait for the complete one.

Sekai Project is sure off to a good start.

>>12420378

You must not be truNEET.

The other day, I was surprised to find that we were not in June.

>>12423100

I had to look it up, but apparently Patreon is a kickstarter alike.

How many kickstarters can you start without actually releasing a game?

>>12423100
I'm just wondering why they're taking on so many projects at once. Wouldn't it be smarter to wait until they've released a few and get some cash coming in before they announce more projects? Especially when they shamelessly admit to turning to Kickstarter yet again for Clannad. Even the people willing to throw money at these projects are likely getting a little suspicious of the countless Kickstarters Sekai Project is doing.

I get that the idea is to constantly have projects going and releases coming out in order to get a steady cashflow, which makes sense for Mangagamer, but didn't dovac admit to having to borrow money from friends and family to get Sekai Project started? I'd really like to know what the deal they offered koestl for Grisaia was, because at this point, I'm convinced they're not paying him until after the game is released.

>>12423137
Dovac plans to run away with money at money pike.

>>12423149

I think dovac's genuine, just retarded and a dramawhore.

It wouldn't surprise me if sekai project was actually having money problems. This whole endeavor seems like it's going to crash and burn if a few of their releases fail in a row. You can't live off kickstarter forever.

I'm really curious how he's managing to get all these big names onboard when they refused mangagamer and JAST, both of which look infinitely more stable(which is really saying something).

>>12423166
Nepotism.
He's Asian.

>>12423166
I imagine it's the numbers working for him and a pretty strong web of contacts. MG and Jast can only cite relatively low sales when dealing with businesses, but sekai can point to their kickstarter success and steam numbers. Before somehow striking a deal with frontwing and key, his only clients were relatively little known doujin makers.

The word is that Dovac quit a relatively lucrative job to try to work on Sekai. It's a pretty risky move considering they have almost no reliable revenue and a huge amount of liabilities (undelivered kickstarter rewards, unfinished projects, etc). Their existing model of pretty much begging for cash to work on projects is somewhat telling of how little they have to work with. They burn through good will pretty quick using kickstarter though, so it'll be interesting to see where it ends up.

So that guy Kouryuu did a podcast with last year did another with him again. It's filled with two fucking annoying guests aside from kouryuu though. Also mostly not new information. Still, I've wasted an hour of my time for you /jp/

>If you can't use your card on Mangagamer, you can apparently email them and they'll work with you to give them money

>>12423137
>>12423166
You do realize that a number of companies that use kickstarter run it for every product release, right? Look at the Arduino chips. Ninja shoes.

>>12423440
It looks to me like Sekai Project is doing a power grab. They are getting big names and I'm suspecting they are the guys releasing Touhou since they were posting being in Japan during Golden Week and were probably at Reitaisai and nobody else has hinted at being connected to it.

Stable? What? Didn't Kouryuu admit just a few MONTHS ago that MG is finally in the black? JAST is stable but never see people talking about how good they are.

I'm hearing lots of shit about Kouryuu off the vine with how he treats staff.

Has there ever been an attempt at a translation for Myself;Yourself? I'm gonna watch the anime anyway since the a VN translation is obviously not on the horizon, but seeing nothing about a translation makes me curious. I have a few good reasons to go with the anime anyway.

Sorry, you only have the anime to work with, and it's nothing really special, having watched it many years ago

The VN was only released on the PS2 and if you take a look at http://www.romhacking.net/?page=translations&platform=18&languageid=12&perpage=20&order=Status, you can only see that 6 translations were made for that platform, none of them being being a VN and the most impressive being DQ5.

There is nothing technically blocking your way from translating a PS2 game VN rather than a PC VN except for worse tools on the PS2. That and need for MIPS assembly hacking most of the time stops most people from translating games because of the expertise needed to actually create a translation on the console where most of the barriers are technical.

What, no they don't. It's common but it's not "pretty much every eroge."

Why the fuck would people want to hack MG to this point? At most they can temporarily shut down the site and get account credentials with literally no gain for themselves except sucking their own cocks for being successful.

I have an account on MG site with bought games and I'll change its details for security reasons but I always find pathetic how some kids want some attention for things like this. I'm actually mad damn it.

>>12424462
>rape and child porn

Sounds like some retarded SJW bullshit.

>>12424462

If you wanna be super safe, probably change your credentials again after mangagamer plugs up whatever exploit he's using.

Still password hashes isn't really that big a deal since I just checked them against https://crackstation.net/'s tables and got nothing for five of them, so they're probably done up right to the point where it'd be a real effort to dehash them.

>>12424533
>after mangagamer plugs up whatever exploit he's using
I think it was yesterday that MangaGamer site and forum were temporarily out. They were probably DDOSed and hacked that way.

Since this isn't the first time MangaGamer was DDOSed, it's probably better for them to get some kind of CloudFlare service, though I'm not informed if that kind of service is that secure.

>>12424551

You don't hack someone with a ddos you dummy, that just takes down the site.

He's using some sort of sql exploit.

>>12424612
I see. I stand corrected.

I'm glad I didn't buy ImoPara yet. Seriously why would someone hack MG?

>>12424675

Someone has to protect the virtual women and children

>>12424675
>>12424688

Also I don't use mangagamer because I'm too poor, but if they're not retarded they use a third-party payment processor so even if you buy imopara, your credit info should be safe.

Of course he could dastardly spend a month dehashing your password, log into to your account, and download your porn games!

>>12424691

According to the email they sent out

>We believe that customer e-mail addresses, usernames, and passwords may have been compromised at this time. Credit card information is NOT stored in our databases, and as such has NOT been comprised.

I wouldn't compare a doujin series released a consistent 6 months for each installment at $10 a pop to a professional one being released for $80+ a pop on god only knows what kind of schedule after all their fuckups and delays.

So aside from the mangagamer hack, another bit more of mangagamer drama was this blogpost that went unnoticed.

http://blog.mangagamer.org/2014/08/25/translators-corner-imouto-paradise/#more-6539

You think he prewrote that up beforehand, or was his firing not as dramatic as was foretold?

>>12425576
Uh, wasn't he fired for incompetence? So why are they having him write shit for them? Under the (probably correct) belief that their idiot paying customers just want anybody to say "moe" "imouto" "honorifics" etc?

>#yumz #dump #rapeisbad #cpisevil #Anonymous

>>12425576
>>12425675

Those blog posts are usually written months in advance when the translators finish their jobs. It's come up in a few other blog posts before. He probably wrote it before he was fired.

>>12424675
Because apparently simulated rape is still rape.

Makes me wonder why they're targeting rape though, think of all the murder simulators like COD out there, they could be saving lives!

>>12426119
Because they think rape is worse than murder

>>12426119
Too high-profile and socially accepted. You'll never gain any ground on your own fighting violence in games, it's just too entrenched as normal. People have (correctly) adopted the mindset of "violence is wrong, unless it's fictional" and (incorrectly) adopted the mindset of "sexuality is bad, abnormal sexuality is even worse, even if it's fictional". Once the public makes up it's mind, it takes extreme effort to force them to think about it instead of defaulting to what they "know" to be correct.

>>12426119
Of course it's rape. It's not like everyone involved in these games are consenting adults paid for their involvement.

Wait.

>>12426156
hundreds of girls were raped by eroge writers in preparation for their writing careers

stop mangagamer

>>12426152
I know, it just makes me wonder if people realise how warped their viewpoint is when they start claiming that fictional (x) is as bad as real (x), then probably go and kill some time killing people in their murder simulators.

It's just dumb.

Books with underage sex are fine, because they're literature.
Games built around killing billions (and some even boast their total userbase kill count), are fine.
Torture porn like SAW is totally fine and grosses huge income in theaters.
Games involving underage sex and /or rape, totally heinous and criminal, expect to be locked up incase you suddenly go on a child-raping spree, even if it's consensual in whatever game involved. Somehow this isn't a worry with porn though, people watch porn all the time and don't suddenly feel the need to go raping people.

The double standards are just mindboggling.
Can people really not differentiate fiction from reality yet are dictating what laws we have? Those people are dangerous, not the people who are fapping to 2d and not leaving their house.

>>12426206
>Can people really not differentiate fiction from reality yet are dictating what laws we have? Those people are dangerous, not the people who are fapping to 2d and not leaving their house.
Alas, normality is what decides acceptability, and abnormality must either remain hidden or force it's way into the public spotlight and become accepted as normal. Humans are extremely xenophobic, and it's a major blight on liberalism and democracy that the claim "Humans can make informed decisions if we give them the chance" has been proven false so many times in the US.

>>12426276
illiberal non-democratic societies have even worse track records with respecting the rights of sexual deviants

>>12426330
I'm not saying non-democratic societies are better, just that the fundamental precept of liberalism is flawed.

>>12424076
None as far as I know, although the Chinese did translate original Myself;Yourself VN. Which is a pity, because the (rushed) anime really didn't do justice to it.
There's not even much to do in terms of technical difficulties, at least nothing as serious as >>12424357 might seem.
VN engine itself supports English out of the box, it's used in many PS2 VNs (School Days, Killer Queen, Cross Channel, Tamayura to name a few); there's a converter for images (by WESTSIDE); scripts are packed with vanilla LZSS and even the text can be hooked.
More details here:
>>11302961
>>11326672

>>12426567

I didn't mean to be very critical and serious in assessing why there were barely any PS2 VN translations in >>12424357. But it's interesting how most of the technical barriers are solved because the visual novel game engine is used in so many PS2 VNs and yet no one considers translating it or any other similar games that have this engine. Kinda sad that because the anime adaptation is so old, no one has interest in translating it.

It's interesting that it has received a Chinese translation, which I might go play.

Speaking of Evangile, MangaGamer recently answered a question regarding script sizes and it turns out that Evangile is quite long which I wasn't expecting. See http://ask.fm/MangaGamerStaff/answer/115963835378

>>12427847
While I still feel insulted by what they did, what you say isn't entirely correct. They released 'Higurashi no Naku Koro ni' (ep1-4) as one package for $40. Then, some time later, they announced they would release 'Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai'; the way they then released them was to release each episode separately at a fixed interval (one or two months, not sure what precisely the interval was) and price them at $20 each. They later revised the price to $10 each and now it's $30 for the whole package, but originally it was $80 for the second half.

Granted, the matter of getting hacked probably won't help them much there. Their website being down for a whole day of Imopara's opening week and potential for casual buyers being intimidated, and all. I can see a lot of people who made eroge successful being skittish now that their emails are public with the accusation they're downloading CP.

>>12429166
The initial mangagamer release was episodic. The bundles came after.

US is not a real democracy, it's ruled by two parties and political system is rigged to always re-elect them. for example small parties don't have any chance since vote counting is not weighed.

>>12409394
Speaking of Rance, I'd like to try this VN. Are each game stand alone or there's a particular order to play them ?

>>12429466
You could just simply use the you know, definition of a democracy instead of hurr durr. The US is a republic.

It's a series that goes I, II, III, IV, 4.1, 4.2, 5D, VI, Sengoku, Quest, Magnum, IX, X (2016).
I and II have remakes called 01 and 02 and III is getting a remake next year.
Kichikuou is a spin off that takes place after 4.2.
Some people say that you can just jump in at Sengoku or whatever because they're not very closely related, but there's actually a lot of continuity that you'll miss if you start in the middle, and I think knowing who the heck the characters are and what's going on in the setting enhances the experience of the later games a lot.

>>12429613
Ok thank, I'll Dl the first one then.

I'm looking forward to Evangile, so that's interesting news. I was expecting it to take me forever even if it was on the shorter side so I guess I'm basically going to be getting myself into some sort of unforgettable epic.

>>12429466
The United States is not a democracy, but it is democratic. And it's highlighted the flaws of democratic government quite well.

>>12429441
Incorrect. It's as >>12429166 said. MangaGamer released Chapters 1~4 together in one bundle, then released Chapters 5~8 episodically, followed by a bundle for those. Unless you count the demo which was just Chapter 1, the first four chapters were not released episodically.

The gift keeps on giving.

So what do you think, /jp/? Fakepost from someone else? Change of heart?

I suppose it could be fear too. His twitter's been nuked and the paste/mirrors are gone. And mangagamer does have that lawyer they keep on hand.

>>12430739
He's an idiot if that is him, you don't just try to cripple a business by stealing their sensitive information and then brush it off with a "whoops, sorry".

>>12430739
It doesn't look like it's written by someone having enough intelligence to hack a company's website, even if said company is MangaGamer.
Although I may be giving them too much credit, now that I remember their forum update attempt (by EvoSpace IIRC) which resulted in total forum wipe.

>>12430790
Most likely it was a simple SQL injection, which, to put it simply, is basically taking this function:

"give me all of [user]'s information"

and entering as username

'the information of all the users; also get me Kouryuu'

which would then make the site execute

"give me all of [the information of all the users; also get me Kouryuu]'s information"

In general, you [the web developer] filter out certain characters and/or patterns to prevent people from entering data that modifies the query, but every so often some intern forgets to make the code check that and as a result you can execute random SQL functions in a database. This is the cause of 99% of customer data leaks. It hardly requires any special knowledge, just some basic knowledge about databases and the boredom to try a couple of tricks on tons of text fields on the site to be hacked.

The saga continues

He's a fucking retard for thinking a business could get away with dealing in CP openly.

Crying translation is considering translating titles like Rui wa Tomo wo Yobu, Hello Lady!, and ‘&’ – Sora no Mukou de Sakimasu you ni -, if enough people 'vote' for those.

>http://cryingtranslation.wordpress.com/2014/08/29/next-titles-your-pick-but-wont-be-confirmed/

Though the translator only seems to have translated nukige in the past. I'm not sure if they're any good.

>>12432338
Judging by the English in his blog posts... yeah, I can definitely see that ending well.

>>12432346
Oh wait, it gets better:
>Just a current student in TAFE with around 6-8 months experience in Japanese, though i really still suck with a lot of stuff. Kanji is a little bit to much for me to understand so i rely a little on Google translator for those i don’t understand. I hope within a few more months or years I’ll understand a lot more.

>>12432351
Oh, I didn't see that. In that case: everybody vote for the nukige!

corntastic, fuck off

>>12431558
I assume he mistook imopara to cp? Even though its a fucking vn

>>12431548
>>12430948
It's like watching a schoolboy bullying kindergarteners, I can't believe he's genuine/legit.
No one that knows what he's doing can be bothered to do this kind of damage control. He's literally nobody, he doesn't even belong to a group whose reputation he could possibly defend. It's fake.

>>12432691
Isn't that essentially what it is? VNs basically do that all the time except they sidestep it with the "But they're 18" stuff. Pretty sure that doesn't fly in the real world.

>>12433009
It does, unless you live in Australia. The person being 18 makes porn legal regardless of how young they look. Compare Imopara to porn flicks with 'underage' settings such as high school; as long as the actors are 18 or older it's fine even if inside the fiction they would logically be underage.

>>12433009
it's not cp. They are not real people but cartoon characters. That is very different imo.

>>12431548
This dude runs a twitter dedicated to hacking various sites. I can't see this ending well for the guy.
