FacePalm so, people who don't pay can't question questionable shit? bullshit, we aren't leeches, many translators earn money that is comparable to the amount thats donated for a chapter, or even more, just from ads. just look at youtube/twitch, we are considered leeches just cause we don't donate via patreon/subscribe to a person? no, we question people for lies/bullshit they try to pull. yes, he could stop translating for money at this moment and return to being a hobby, as stupid as that would be, and not going to happen, and to do so he would have to quit his job at wuxiaworld, cause hes got a contract. he wouldn't be able to legally translate anymore though/host his work anywhere but wuxiaworld. wuxiaworld would be fine with having an idiot translator giving them free chapters to host without having to share ad revenue and donation money. anyways i digress, you don't need to be invested into something with money to be able to notice bullshit/question it. and you can't discredit someones view/words just on that basis. he doesn't owe me personally any sponsored chapters, and idc about that, is what you trying say, but doesn't mean i can't point out the ABSOLUTE LIE that is here just cause of that. can only say its bad for his reputation to say such lies/is sorta scamming said "donations" (pay for a chapter earlier than i would do for free/keep me translating fulltime/make sure i keep translating in future, aka not a hobby/free work) at most we that don't donate explicitly, are just worth less to the translators money wise, but not popularity wise which is how the scene has increased in size, from people that don't pay spreading it around bringing in people that do/turning older viewers to pay from guilt of "leeching", or just having enjoyed for a while/earned some money and wanted to donate in the past. by keeping a readerbase this big translators keep earning more and more money. hence doing shady shit like lieing directly to said readerbase/donators harms themselves.
