Board Thread:News and Announcements/@comment-25035274-20140726190754

I was just looking and KC's home site. I found a message from KC to his Western fans, and figured it might interest people to know the actual reasons behind his refusal to give MGU further permission to host his materials.

The full text, straight from KC himself, can be found on his website at this link: http://kurobine.sakura.ne.jp/kc_message.htm.

Basically, to summate, the people over at MGU only gave half the story. What it came down to was that (a)they backed out of a deal they made with KC a couple of years ago; (b)people viewing the works not only interpreted them wrongly(which KC fully states is to be expected and understood, as different people view things differently), but were outright insulting him, suggesting he should just outright stop writing(and one going so far as to threaten his life); and finally, (c)some of the admins, the ones who should have been reining in the people who were making personal attacks, were joining in.

KC is glad Westerners enjoy his works, and despite the fact that he could make more money by hiring some of these translators himself and forcing us to pay to buy it(which is well within his rights), he's glad to let English speakers view them for free. But he's not down with people using his works for guro(snuff), and he's seriously not down with people making personal attacks against him, which I think we can all understand and appreciate.

Once again, in case anyone missed the link to the message in his own words: http://kurobine.sakura.ne.jp/kc_message.htm
