Woooow. I never imagined this day to actually come but, it has! Finally after making this journal 3 years ago. I've reached the limit of 1000 users!

LJ has a limit of 1000 people I can add to a personal journal so, I cannot add anymore people!

Now my question is. . . what should I do?
I can either transfer this entire journal to a community or maybe make a password protected site or something. While I'd like to make it accessible to the entire public, I cannot do that since my translations seem to enjoy growing legs and walking away onto other sites by some other people out there.

I will not shut this journal down!

Eventually I will probably move everything to a brand new community where I'll be posting future updates and accepting more members. I will post a notification when the time comes. ^^ Thank you for taking your time reading all my translations and giving me a place to share my enjoyment with you.

People who are waiting to be added, please wait a bit before I open a community where I can grant you access. Apologies for any delays and inconvenience!

( Frequently asked questionsCollapse )


More questions to come eventually, I guess. . .

I've been getting several notes here and my regular journal regarding translations occasionally and I'd like to ask people who note me, to please enable private messaging on LJ! (especially if you plan to note me with questions!)

Otherwise, there's no other way for me to reply to you.
I'm not trying to neglect anyone or just refusing to answer questions. It's just that your setting on LJ is set so you can't accept LJ notes. Please fix that. (and I have no other way aside from announcing it here since there's no other way to reply to certain people. . .)

I just also added a ton of people again. Apologies for the delay once again.

Since I've been getting a lot of confused people regarding the archive and I don't feel like going back to update the old one every time, I'll just start updating the archive on this entry!

( Translation index on THIS journalCollapse )

So there seems to be a stream of leakages from this journal (or possibly my old journal when I used to have my translations public. . . but judging from how recent it is, it probably leaked from here).

I've been notified twice this week about people. . .
1- re-translating my translations (into Spanish.)
2- re-posting my translations (on a French forum)
3- something about my translations popping up on mangahelpers (I AM NOT ON THAT SITE!)

Oh why oh why do you do this, people.

It's unfortunate to see such things happen since all I can do is just sigh and let it slide. Mainly due to the fact that these sites tend to be in a foreign language. CLEARLY, they have to be able to read SOME English in order to know my translations here are. . . translations and not my homework from last night.

Yet they use their "language barrier" as an excuse to ignore my messages and such and simply repost my works on their silly forums / journals / youtube.

Let me just tell you thieves something.
How can you be so sure that my translations are even accurate?
Are you really sure what I'm distributing here is real? I've already screwed over the Reborn fandom by throwing in a random number in the numerical system and had a good portion of the fandom believe it. *AHEM* :D
What benefits do you even get from stealing other people's works?
Crediting me does NOTHING. I translated for my friends to enjoy and not your friends.

Alas. What can I do.
Aside from rant here and just hope things like this won't happen again.
Apologies to. . . 99% of those having to deal with this. One rotten thief here is ruining all the fun clearly.

(altho I am guilty for ruining everyone's fun by not updating-- *COUGH* Excuse me. . . sorry!)

Go away thieves. I don't like you!

Hi, shiroro here.

First.
Apologies for the 70+ people I haven't added in the past month.

Second.
Apologies for the lack of updates.

Third.
Apologies for those who I added that I did not reply to. Those who I added should see their name appear On this list. If you don't see your name on the list and you asked to be added, either you. . .
1- didn't read the rules.
2- didn't read the rules.
3- didn't read the rules.
or maybe I accidentally missed you. But, usually the case is 1, 2, and 3.
I decided to go easy on some people and added, despite some of you appearing as if you're 5 years old. . . (Oh, sorry. Five year olds even know how to spell "you" instead of "u". It's a pet peeve.)

Fourth.
While I was deleting the batch of messages collecting in my inbox, I swear I accidentally deleted a message from someone regarding reading some BLEACH translation I had on my main journal. If that person wishes to still see what I've translated in the past, please message me once again. I'm really sorry about the delayed response too. T_T;;

Lastly.
I do not accept ANY requests in translations. Please do not ask me to translate (insert name of title you want translated) unless. . .
1- You plan to pay me.
2- I have time.
3- It's something of my interest. (If I have no knowledge of a particular series, it's nearly impossible for me to translate. I end up taking more time researching the series than actually translating it).

Any questions or comments, please just PM me and I'll try. . . to be more attentive.

It looks like someone posted a direct link to my translation site on GAIA forums. (When things get stolen, it's usually on 4chan or Gaia by default. Not a place with a good reputation for sure. . .)

I certain hope it's not any one of you guys. That section of the site is password protected for a reason. I would also appreciate it if people don't pass around the password too. x_x; I am aware of a community here on LJ that has people discussing the password for my page and the answer is written smack in the comment thread. But I just let it slide cuz they took their time to look stuff up on google without asking me directly. . . haha

I am not blaming anyone. I am not pointing fingers at anyone. Seeing how google picks up certain keywords now and it DOES hit my page with translations. So, this person could've found it on google.

Thus, I will be changing the password for my site with most of my BLEACH translations. The new link will be posted up on the old entry in this journal with the listing of BLEACH translations. It's a little more work for some of you, but I only have this up for desperate (?) people. ^^
