This particular matter has been going on for some time but it got more common and frequent this past few weeks so I'm going to make a thread about it. Consider this a NUF PSA. To begin, I will quote this from the Forum Rules. This covers the whole forum. For more detailed rules you may check the subforum rules but everything is done at the staffs discretions. Recently some nuffians posted Ko-fi links to accounts that sells MTL files of Korean novels. We consider this advertisements and repeated posts of it as spam. If found, these posts will be removed and warnings will be given. Depending on the staffs handling it, you may be given warning points only or warnings that will result in a temporary or permanent ban depending on the staff who handles the issue. Refer again to the rule I quoted if you're still wondering about why this action is done. NUF does not run on democracy. It never has and it probably never will. NUF does not condone the act of selling and buying pirated raw or MTL of novels you want to read. If you bought something through the users you met here or links you got from here and you got scammed, we cannot help you in finding the perpetrators. What we can do is remove the link and the users so they won't be able to get more victims through this platform and to do this we need you to report those posts or users. Please be responsible with your money and purchase with clear knowledge of what you're purchasing and who you're purchasing them from.
In short, NUF staff staves will bear down on you if you dare share monetized links to pirated or shady content. Furthermore, they refuse to be held responsible for or commiserate with victims of said scams. You too can do your bit by reporting such suspicious links for beatings by staff staves.
To those that still have money to waste, send it here! I'll even give you my educated guess on what the weird symbols mean!
Is sharing free raws allowed? I have a link in my profile to where I share free raws of Korean novels. Do I have to remove that?
Grey area. I'm not removing it since that website works like other MTL sites, imagine lnmtl and mtlnovel where you can read both Chinese and English but for this it's Korean. They're not allowed on NU as they are unedited but it's fine to discuss them as a reading platform.
sigh...context matters here. what I meant was that no one reads threads like these. the rules, the faq...it's all clearly available. they choose not to read them. If they did read them, they then choose to ignore it. When they are called out for it, they act the victim and say everyone breaks the rules. it's a never-ending cycle.
Ah~ NUF, somethings never change.... its like I never left... how does the song go... " always burning, since the world's been turning"
Yeah, it's kinda like that. I'd read the rules if I'm about to post/reply/ask something I never know/read in nuf. Luckily I was an active quiet reader before I dared to post/ask in nuf Personally, I'd choose being called out when I post something wrong rather than seeing my post gets deleted without knowing why. It'll make me not learning the lesson.
Why did I got this message? Is it for all NU members or just some people? I mean, I'm sure I didn't share any link here in NU. Only spoiler???
