Of what? For whom? Are you looking for a translator, some one who can scan a certain title, an editor? Help us out, here.

A scanlator is what we need, we will go for most any title, and if you can translate or edit, that would be cool, but for now we need a scanlator.

"scanlator" is as broad a term as "engineer" or "fansubber"...

Why do you choose to be stipulative..if you can do it just say yes.


Hows this someone who can scan ANY[recent as in last year] manga to their comp, so we can tl it and edit it, and it can be in either japanese or chinese, we would also like someone who can provide online RAWs of manga, that specific enough for you and your stipulations.

There are many aspects of the "scanlation" process. What do you need? Someone to scan, translate, edit, or what? You're the one that isn't being specific.

what I said last post --->we can tl it and edit it, and it can be in either japanese or chinese.

That would therefor mean I dont need editors or translators.


What I also said last post ---->Hows this someone who can scan ANY[recent as in last year] manga to their comp

how can you possibly be any more specific then that.

For now just dont reply if your gonna say useless comments, pls reply if you can help.

... Oh I get it now. You need a scanner. Not a "scanlator".

A: "Hello? Are there any doctors willing to help out around here?"
B: "What do you need a doctor for?"
A: "Look, we've already got the contractor and the materials, I just need a doctor."
B: "Uh, what do those have to do with doctors?"
A: "Why are you being such a prick? It's a simple question. I need a doctor to build my dock. Is that enough obvious information for you, asswipe?"

Such unpleasantness that Mr. A could have avoided by simply using correct definitions.

"Scanslation group in search of scanner. Any manga will do. We have none of our own." That'll get you less help than not asking at all. It's like saying 'incompetent person seeking competent person to do all the work for them'. Almost as bad as the classic 'editor seeking translator and scanner for NEW AWESOMENESS group working on shounen jump series' things.

Then good luck finding a scanator (It wouldn't be as much as funny as it is if not someone had told you the real word for it [in bold])

You know, you could always buy manga online at Sasuga.com or Yesasia.com or something and if one of your current staff members has a scanner, make 'em do more work.

Ok. Correct me if I'm wrong, but if finding a translator was the hardest part, then why do you have 2 willing to work for you even though you're too incompetent to find a scanner? And if finding a scanner is so simple, why can't you find one? Also, why do you think most groups have fewer scanners than translators? Hell, I was the only scanner for my group for the first 2 years.

Join some other group if they're willing to hire you and stop polluting my mind with stupidity.
