If we can pick out the valid points about the legality of past scans_daily practises-and I think Gail Simone's suggestions and the stricter rules being implemented play into this-then I think we will find a way for the culture of scans_daily to live on, without giving cause for us to be TOS'ed out or shut down by publishers.Īnyway, here's an excerpt from the article, but the entire thing is worth a read: However, I do think it's important, as our lovely moderators and all of us are working toward a future for the community that supported scans_daily, for us to try to look at this criticism objectively. Big whoop, right? It's not hard to find piracy or people complaining about aspects of comics, creators or publishers on the internet, is it? You know as well as I do that's not what made us us, and it's not why we stayed.īut for those of us who participated regularly, are passionate about comics and love them, who loved our discussions that ranged from wanky hilarious mocking to intelligent and insightful debate, who were convinced to buy comics or were introduced to the medium itself through scans_daily-this kind of commentary can sting a little bit. The usual refrain is that we're pirates and whiny wankers who hate comics. If you're like me, you've been reading a lot of negative commentary toward scans_daily. The article bluntly lays out what was wrong with scans_daily, without much sympathy for it or its members. She argues that no, it wasn't a factor (which I agree with), but also discusses the differences between sites like s_d and other sites that pirate comics (which, I gather, tend to be more male-dominated). the blue blocks in the preview and black blocks in the dark version.Robot 6 has an article up about the argument as to whether or not scans_daily being a female-friendly space impacted its shutdown. *These only fit on "your" header section and tags (ie.

Thought I washed them all off, but you can't seem to keep your eyes off me, and I know it's not my pretty face." It was either pretend to ignore it and keep gritting his teeth until he had to pull over and smash something, or risk a heart-to-heart by bringing it up.Įventually, though, the heart-to-heart won. It was just the two of them left awake, no one to even distract Columbus from whatever it was on his mind, or Tallahassee from how much Columbus thinking so loud annoyed him. The girls were napping in the back, lulled to sleep by the drive. For him to reconsider saying it? Hell, that had to be some serious stuff. After all, wasn't like Columbus usually had that great a control of what came out of his mouth. The more Columbus stared, the more Tallahassee was sure it was going to be something that would really piss him off. That way, Tallahassee could be pissed off, Columbus could fumble around trying to make it all go away, and then they could go back to normal. If he was going to start whining about something (or worse, talking about some kind of rules), Tallahassee kind of wished he'd just go ahead and get it over with. Maybe Columbus thought he was being subtle, but the way he kept looking at Tallahassee was really starting to get on his nerves. It was probably the tenth time in as many minutes. It was getting harder and harder to find gas, and he couldn't be sure, but he thought maybe everyone else was as tired as he was and just didn't want to say so.Ĭolumbus shifted in his seat, ass tingling uncomfortably, and he glanced over to the driver's side, at Tallahassee. Well, he was easy to talk to, but if he didn't like what you were saying you might get knocked right in the teeth-and Tallahassee was right. A plan had been slowly forming and, while he was pretty sure he could get the girls on his side, Tallahassee was a tough man to talk to. Whatever it was, he was pretty sure if they stopped at one more fucking store for crap they didn't even need he was going to start screaming. Maybe it was just that the truck was starting to smell like dude. Maybe it was just his natural instinct to hole up and sit on his ass kicking in, but Columbus was getting tired of spending every day driving.
