If it's only got one file, I can add the filename.
Personally feel a little iffy over the source info - mostly trying to keep the RSS stuff minimal. Maybe I'll consider some URL parameter which will display more file info, like on the /view/ pages.
Hopefully the filename is sufficient for your needs.

p.s. Anything simpler than Usenet would be easy to kill.

These days I doubt a site like AT is going to make any contacts or provide any information.  Your best bet is to post on Nyaa.

Thanks for reaching out (as well as initially raising the issue) - I sent what was requested via email. Let's see how this goes.

I can't help if facts sound hostile.

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.

I agree, to a point. If I come here one day, and all the groups are AWOL then I'm forming a posse to go after them!

I jest, but yeah, fansubers, please don't desert us! Oanygai!

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.

I did find this, if it's of any interest to you.

We been a dealing with whackamole agents since day one...

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.

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.

mkv files don't execute, so it doesn't take coders or hackers to spot anything.  They either play or they don't.

That would be called a 'Unique Selling Point'. It's surprising that a gap in the market like that hasn't been noticed and filled already to be honest
