Any chance of a brief overview for those of us that don't do discord? I'm not looking for their linkin, just wondering if they wrote an 'about us' or something
admin wrote notes asking if sendspace was needed. Those who replied said no, due to its limitations and admin disabled it. We're at our resource limits and are looking to lighten our load.
Can you imagine if they took anime away from the autists? Fuck, those madmen would be bored enough to move from /a/ to /pol/ and, following the links and joining the dots as only autists can, the whole shitshow truth of our world system, the real story of lies, corruption and manipulation would be smashed in a matter of months, the ruling banking cartels, the vaticanos, the saudi and jewish mafias, the royals, the occult alphabet group, the military industrial complex, the deep state, all of it, the actual truth of the corruption and lies, the evidences of all of it would be delivered 24/7 straight into every in box and comment section in existence. The NWO don't have a memory hole big enough to cope with the sheer flood of info the autists would unleash.
I followed HS for years, there is no freakin way that they'd be intimidated, they'd piss themselves laughing at that. Regardless of how big or little a threat covid1984 is/was, especially to those of us under 80y/o with no underlying illnesses, regardless of that, 2020 has been a cunt of a year, what with the non stop nagging of the media, social and MSM. Its easy to believe that the HS founders might have just been pissed off enough with everything to call it a day. Hopefully it will just be a break though, and they'll be back subbing in some form or other sooner rather than later.
Remember you could put more data in your Mega account than your storage limit (say 50GB)?! 🙃 Now they've taken action and hold those data hostage to make those opportunistic users pay for Pro plans 😅 😂
People linking pedoshit is obviously meant to stir up trouble here. I appreciate the fact that the admins deal with all that crap in a cool calm manner.
I expect everyone now knows Horrible folded a couple of weeks after legal notices started to go out to old Nyaa associates. It was touching to see some people bought their Covid story here.
the timing indicates that subsplease are probably old members of horriblesubs, it was a big group. Just my guess though, I too would appreciate any infos on them
Anyone have any info on subsplease? They came out of nowhere just exactly as horriblesubs metaphorically an heroed themselves.
Its a little bit suss that this group came out of nowhere, yet there are a tone of people making posts that simultaneously fangirl subplease whilst dissing erai
The attack you refer to was noticed/reported immediately and we did our standard deletion. Our standard deletion gets unwanted things out of the users way by removing it from our listings and search. If someone tries hard they can find references in old comments, but such content is not why people come here and not what they are looking for.
After the attack we took countermeasures and we haven't had another attack like that land here since. A new attack will have to use different methods and we'll have to adjust to those if they happen. Additional countermeasures seem to me to be unnecessary unless the current ones fail.
-Reporting in article comments or Feedback seems easy enough to not need a button.
It took more than a month for someone to report that the anime episode released by Erai-raws for a popular anime series was actually child pornography. This shows that relying on user reports is not enough.
You should implement other methods to delete problematic content and take a proactive approach. E.g
If the content has been removed from the source link, delete it immediately
Only mirror content from Nyaa because it has the fastest review speed
Only mirror content from trusted uploaders
Programmatically check for suspicious or non-anime content in screenshots
Someone is uploading child pornography renamed to unaired episodes of anime to public anime trackers. Anime Tosho has mirrored some of these uploads and they continue to be available months after being uploaded. Here is an example - https://animetosho.org/view/erai-raws-...i.n1290440
I suggest using a neural network or other software solution to examine the screenshots the Anime Tosho bot takes for child pornography. I also suggest to stop publicly hosting screenshots until all child pornography has been removed from Anime Tosho.
Sounds like he has a real life. I respect that. My need for anime is not worth anyone ruining their life, and ripping CR isn't going to look good on any job application.
Let's start with your delusion that anyone asked you for your advice about anything. That could only have been the voices in your head. There's probably a medication for that.
Let's then move on to your loose grip on facts and opinions. By the way, what was your comment about someone at Erai living a good life on the donations? Sounds like plain snake venom to me. You need to quit listening to those voices in your head.
So someone is worried about Erai, and you think you answered it by saying they are unreliable? That's lame. Thanks for some actual info afterwards, if true.
Except I did in fact answer it. It helps if you can comprehend English I suppose.
The question asked was why Erai hasn't been releasing anything here. The answer is simply Erai is unreliable and goes days or even weeks at a time without uploads and people have to wait for them to return to batch things.
I've spoken to some of Erai staff. They've said the owner is MIA and the bot crashed. Until he returns to revive the bot, no new releases.
Erai isn't a fansub group, it's an automated ripping group aside from the v2/v1 FUNimation stuff they decide to do some minimal TS on, and they make so much on donations the owner could live comfortably without working.
As for the not forcing it bit, some groups do. DeadFish, a re-encode group for hardsubs, for example will stop releasing entirely until goals are hit else they might just encode the episode upside down; which they've done a couple dozen times now through the years... Erai stopped getting donations a while back and took a few weeks break as a result as well.
In any case, we've got 2 automated rip groups: Erai and SubsPlease. One begs for donations, their release schedule is unreliable, and their subtitles often have issues from omissions in the header. The other says they'll never rely on donations as they're retired and money is no issue to them, their release schedule is consistent as all episodes have consistency been out within a few minutes of simulcast with no random delays and no several day lapse in releases, and the subtitles are consistent across all simulcast services ripped and without the missing header information of the subs.
So seems like an easy choice to me. After all this comment roll was started because of the inconsistent release pattern of Erai due to unreliability.
Sounding a bit hostile there mate, I don't follow any particular group, but I've watched plenty of shows with the Erai tag on the file, and I've never had a demand for donations. As far as I can tell most sub groups do this for kicks, and wit hout them we'd be lost. I think its fair enough that users encourage each other to chip in to help fund servers and so on. Theres no harm in it, and no one is actually forcing you to help out.
Erai do what they do, and IMO they should just stick to that, theres no need for one group to take all the pressure after horribles absence. Plenty of groups around to share the load.
I did hear that they had seen some (hopefully minor) intimidation tactics, their donation accounts being whackamoled and so on - When you're getting flak its a sign your over the target - There are evil fuckers out there that wanna stop our access to our anime, copyright assholes, and just plain assholes. If you wanna help drop some donation bucks on some subgroups , servers don't pay for themselves, and some groups, including erai do some DDL options
Haven't seen many {erai-raws] releases on here in the last few days, anyone have any info on this? I'm probably being overanxious, but with HS taking a backseat I'm a bit worried about our subbers
Hi admin, I don't know if there were some issues but some of the releases from Hakata Ramen have been skipped from being fetched from TokyoTosho. Were there any issues with the torrent or something happened with the site?
Thanks for the info. It looks like the provider's server is glitching a bit (giving invalid NNTP responses). I've added some workaround and re-enabled stuck uploads to retry. Will keep an eye on whether it works.
I have noticed that since a couple of days there are some missing NZB on the site. I checked on the newsgroup directly the files are uploaded, but without any PAR and the CRC / MD5 don't match so the file was apparently corrupted during upload(For example : [SubsPlease] D4DJ First Mix - 04 (1080p) [DD7084F0].mkv). I don't know if it's linked to the current extra load or if there is some issue / timeout with the NZB script.
