It’s an online forum if you want a private convo take it to dms

You're right, this is an online forum, and that means there are rules.
This is your only warning to stop being an asshole to others, especially over semantics.
If you do not like this work, then move on and let others who want to enjoy it do so.

Who is being an asshole? Not me. I responded as an ass to 2 people who were assholes to me/didn't agree with me in a rude way(see were not strawmanning, were ignoring cuz ur opinions are worthless - and you didnt warn them) But I can see that you don't like my opinion and so just want me to shut up. I am not "being rude to people about the semantics of yuri" I had an opinion on the quality of the yuri in the manga, and so wanted to warn other people. I very much enjoyed volume 1, read volume 2, started getting a bit weirded out by the sudden injection of new cast members and the push of the couple into the background, and then i took a break. Reread the whole series a few days ago, and came to inform others like me(who read yuri for yuri) that it isn't exactly yuri, but more sapphic tinged rock manga.

Trying to hide behind "it was my opinion" isn't going to work when you were framing it as personal insults.
That was your only warning, you can sit out for a month.

So a pair of garden-variety manga humor tropes: Sick Episode + Lethal Cook = "Woop-woop! Red flag! Toxic behavior!"

Right.

Knock it off, you won't be warned again.

The work has been removed.
We took it down as we did not want to distribute it through our platform, that includes the forums.

After confirming with the people who worked on this release, we have agreed to remove the work as the message it contains does not reflect the views of Dynasty nor of knight heron and it's not something we support.

Multiple people in this thread have been banned for 30 days as they chose to openly mock, if not belittle people who had expressed legitimate concerns about this work.

We will not tolerate this kind of behaviour.

I'm putting an end to this debate, this is not the place for it.
Do not continue it.

This thread is not to be used for debating user actions, and back seat moderating will not be tolerated either.

Cease.
If one can not refrain themselves from going into political debate in a release thread, you will get one warning (hint: this is that warning) and it will be your final one.

Other non-English projects have scanlated further ahead , so... a glimpse of the henceforth.

Just want to remind everyone that this is a romantic story too; it's not just about masochism and niche fetishes.

Do not post anything ahead of what is available on the site, please respect the other users of this site

The best way currently it to highlight moderators/staff members on our Discord.
We have a #current-release channel as well for discussing current releases and the discussion around them.

I thought the best way was to report it in the Help thread?

https://dynasty-scans.com/forum/topics/20416-faq-help-suggestions-2022

OrangePekoe, who made the thread, stated in the opening message that it was the intended place to report bad behavior and request moderation.

That thread can also be used, but for real time response, Discord is better.

report it to the moderation team.

What's the best way to do this?

This is a first.
I posted a oneliner and for 3 entire pages peepz have done nothing but talk about my post weeeeeee
I'm so proud of myself rn. :^)

You're banned. You did nothing that should deserve any pride or praise.

As a note to everyone: If a similar post is made in the future in any thread, please do not engage with it and report it to the moderation team.

If you felt this was your excuse to unload on relationships involving male characters: This behaviour is not tolerated here. Whatever your experiences are that lead up to now, none of it justifies punching down or attacking others, or the fictional representations of others.

If anyone continues this asinine argument, I will ban them without hesitation.

There has been some issues with e-mail notifications going out that we're looking to solve (eventually).
I know it's been an issue for quite a while, but we're aware and are working on it.

[Far too long of a rant to say you're not capable of respecting others]

Speaking as a mod, and after conferring with other staff members, I don't see any communication with you from our end that was directed at you. In fact at best we can find just a general statement that was made in an unrelated thread. There were however directed comments at you about engaging conversations in bad faith, which you clearly have not heeded.

Not only that, choosing to by-pass contacting us to solve an issue just shows us you have no intention of operating in the rules or in community contract of treating others with some modicum of respect.

Either way, you're being removed.

For everyone else, please do not continue the conversation, and keep it on the release itself.
Thank you.

Both your comments are inappropriate and are unnecessarily being a jerk. You can disagree with people without resorting to commenting on them themselves, and if you can not, do not comment.

Hello all, once again we're trying to do some real good this Pride Month, by running a donation campaign for LGBTQIA+ focused charities. This time I decided to use Tiltify to enable the donations to be spread to multiple organizations. You can find the campaign page here: https://tiltify.com/@casusby/dynasty-scans-pride

You can also find a FAQ for the Tiltify fundraising event here: https://info.tiltify.com/support/solutions/articles/43000664836--unifiedforpride-2022-faqs

If there are questions about anything, I will do my best to answer them here or on Discord

More over, I want to encourage people to seek out local organizations that they can help if they don't feel like donating to our campaign here; or more so LGBTQIA+ peoples that they know that might be on hard times.

Speaking personally, I think the world is heading in a dangerous direction, and while individually it can seem hard to affect change, just improving the lives of LGBTQIA+ people that we can help is still worth it. This has been one of the best "side effects" of Dynasty Scans, and it makes sense to further that when we can.

Upcoming in the month, I plan to hold a few community events on our Discord in support of the campaign as well.

There will also be some raffling of (digital) prizes for those who donate a minimum of $10 USD. Just one donation of $10 USD is enough to be entered (one entry per person). Please select the reward on the page if you wish to be entered.

If you're unable to donate, please help share the campaign if you can! Spreading the word is also greatly appreciated.

And if you haven't already, you can join us on the Discord with this invite: https://discord.com/invite/e4sbY8S

Thank you so much for reading, and for being a part of our community

Something really bizarre happened to my post here:
https://dynasty-scans.com/forum/posts/779614
if you look around it, random seemingly responded to it before I posted it, and naresh4444 captured the moment where it appeared as if the comment was posted in the future. And I'm pretty sure as well I posted it earlier than the post timestamp would suggest.

There was a small issue with timestamps after the maintenance yesterday, it has been corrected now. No need to worry.

The issue should be resolved now.

We are investigating, thank you for reporting it.

The forums already have a topic for Genshin discussion found here: https://dynasty-scans.com/forum/topics/17518-genshin-impact

Please do not continue discussing whatever your takes are on Genshin in the image comments. Thank you.

Back from the dead, the Dynasty Scans twitter account is alive again. The main use for now will be to notify people if there are any site issues, but we are looking into expanding on other uses for the account (yes like release announcements).

But for now you can check there (or on discord, we have a discord) for any news if the site runs into issues.

https://twitter.com/DynastyScans

It has been updated

A new chapter just got released, is a translation in the works?

Please do not create an account just to bug people about a translation for something you admitted yourself just came out.
Your ban is in the works for 30 days.

I mean would it not be easier to convince others to bring their works here if this was actually a site for yuri works. if het is allowed what does separate this site from mangadex. while nice is subjective there are some very questionable series here so if het is going to be allowed perhaps at least lay out some guidelines for what het gets posted here. Maybe at least having some transparency over the process would reduce some of the unease in this community. Just my 2 cents, don't want to cause you grief its just this place is important to me.

First and foremost, we are not in competition with Mangadex. If people choose to have their work only hosted there, it's unfortunate but not something we're going to fight over.

Secondly, we are not "just" a site for yuri works. We have and always been a site that reflects and represents the kinds of stories that we (the staff who curate it) want to see. Yes, that means primarily yuri works since the history Dynasty is deeply slated in it. But Dynasty also has that same history in non-yuri works. That also means we want to include and actively want to increase our catalogue of yaoi, trans, and other queer stories. Having these stories (including hetrosexual ones) does not detract from the volume of yuri works we have.

There is another kind of "representation" we commit to, and that is allowing those who have trusted us and whom we trust, to host their work and as much of their work as they want to have on the site. Sometimes this will include non-yuri works, and that's okay.

Sometimes our views of things change, sometimes we mature in thought processes. There are representations of ourselves in old Dynasty works that we wouldn't represent now. We do and will update people when we decide to make a large enough decision that affects multiple works across our catalogue.

Kind of disgusting to assume the character is trans because he likes to cross-dress

This comment is inappropriate and very disrespectful towards the people who worked on this release.
Please do not continue to make such posts.

Thanks for the support everyone!! The campaign has managed to pass $5000 which I thought was a lofty goal when we were planning things. Would love to see how far we can go!
