    I don't care. I will read where it was first. As simple as that.

    Definitely any novel that is close or about to be finished will be poached. Terror Infinity will be one that is guaranteed to be poached because of "slow-releases". Especially if it becomes popular.

    This the real meh? Working on release that witch? If so, please inform the translator that 枪 can also mean spear and that 虫 should be pest/insect, not worm in most situations. Bugging the hell out of me reading that.


    The entire translation is a grey area, and technically, according to most copyright laws, the law-breakers would be the translators if they don't have permission from the right holders. But do you really own the derivative work of others you simply reworked? By your example, what you're arguing for is that if you stole someone else's car, then did a makeover on it, it belongs to you now. Granted it's not this simple with digital goods since it's hard to calculate loss since you're copying, not stealing, but it still invalidates your argument.

    If I stole your car then do makeover by adding/changing headlight and stereo. The car still yours, but the head light and stereo is mine. You can demand me to return the car like it used to be but I also have right to the headlight and stereo.

    But you didn't add those things that can be removed, you simply remodeled the car so it looks cooler so its overall value went up. Well, this is basically where IP laws breaks off when we try to use them on real goods.

    Even if I don't add anything and only make it cooler, you can't goes and say that you are the one that modify the car and put it on a car show then profit from them. The design and artwork are mine, the one that modify is me.

    But I agree that the comparison is not apple to apple so there will be ackward condition when we try to compare.

    Like I said the TL do break the law but it doesn't mean QI don't

    Grandaddy is becoming less and less bright as the time passes by. I wouldn't really get into an argument if I hadn't enough proof.
    Although Gamer is part of EFT, he's not translating for QI.

    Also, not sure what are you trying to prove with your messages. I never said EFT was a team that dished out high-quality translations. In fact, most of them are pretty bad at what they're doing, but there are also good ones like @lonelytree.
    But being bad ≠ being a MTLer.
    Meanwhile, talking about shady translators :sushi_cool:

    Your cocky attitude makes me want to puke! Your fellow translators, Bao, had called your action as immature, so why are you still talking like some big shot here and stirring up fire? What is your true motive here?

    Nobody have a perfect translation, neither the translators on WW nor QI. The readers will judge by showing their supports to those who they like. Even if you have a perfect translation (which I doubt so), your arrogant attitude will not bring you anywhere.

    **Edit: spelling mistake.

    I'm more than 50% sure that there are more than 1 translator doing MMORPG : Rebirth Legendary Guardian.
    They mistranslate main villain name 7 times in 2 different chapter.

    I'm betting on Tales of a Reincarnated Lord if it ever picks up from its hiatus again :(

    LOL! Grand, grand, grand, grand, grand^103daughter, I have translated over 2100+ chapters from various novels. Shady indeed. LOL!

    Hasn't made a goal?

    When your granddaddy was translating, you weren't even born, sonny.
