    Well, some people were concerned about the licensing (reasonably), some people were less tactful about it and others couldn't deal with the attitudes of people. When you have two conflicting parties not actively seeking a resolution, but trying to argue how the other parties points are invalid, you end up with a debate. In the end, the issue was resolved and the debate seems to be over.

    Seems about right! >.<

    At some point the issue completely derailed from RWX's initial announcement though... >.>

    Even if they did, this stuff always moves at the speed of Law, which is to say super slowly. For all we know the DMCAs were filed last year and only now got processed. Im sure patreon is smart enough to drag it out as long as possible considering theyre making tens of thousands off of ww patreons.

    Same. Threads about QI, WW ads, "is X site down?", stolen translations... etc are just for farming nuffies.

    I like keeping myself informed on those things, so I generally read at least 1 Qidian thread per batch they appear.
    Though I don't deny I post mainly for the nuffies~

    I am part of the peanut gallery others speak of. Therefore, I shall tire of these threads~

    I wish to take advantage in farming nuffies~ Thus, I shall do so~

    My goodness, $100k in lawyer fees? Forget it! That's way too big. Even if they had that much extra money laying around, it would be better to use it to improve WW and buy more licenses for good novels (not from Qidian, obviously). WW is doing the right thing, just ignore Qidian from now on. (y)

    Actually it isn't that big, because everywhere is the same.
    Look at similar cases and you will understand.
