Yes, I have been notified about this.
Apparently, there’s a patreon that’s stealing my works and he is doing a really bad job at hiding that they are not mine.
I have a lot of quirks in my translations and I changed a few names to make them easier to the tongue, so there’s a lot of easy ways to find out if they are mine. Not only that, it is clear from the english in his actual posts and announcements that his english is not good at all. The level is just not congruent with the material he is apparently translating.
And it seems I am not the only victim, as that patreon is also taking the chapters of UchiMusume.
I won’t stop you from searching for the site, since hey, it is extremely easy to find in google, but I won’t be posting it here.
In any case, this post was simply to raise the awareness that things like this are actually happening, and it is a complete insult to the people that work so hard in those translations.
If the person stealing that job is reading this, STOP. The translating community is small in web novels to begin with, and what you are doing will not only insult all that hard work, it will destroy that motivation as they see how someone is utilizing their work in such a dirty and unethical manner, not only that, it will make new aspiring translators feel reluctant to take the chance.
Don’t be the one that destroys the chance for this community to grow.
Well, I was already planning on opening a Patreon page myself, so I thought this was a good opportunity.
THIS is my actual patreon site: https://www.patreon.com/isekaitranslations
Right now there’s not much, since it is a page 100% for support.
If you guys have any suggestions in rewards and goals, feel free to give them. I would love to hear them out.

we are with you sensei!
Tried looking for that site, He's gone... Damn he's fast!
umm is the one named man mik the one being hunted ..,, coz its like he is so proud that he is sucking out reigokai donos work just to get money
Both the scammer from the patreon and this "man mik" possess similar level of english proficiency.
So, chance that they are the same guy is high.
Btw, is he a vietnamese?
Dead man is what he is
There's no way to directly confirm their identity, so it might be a troll, but chances are yeah, that's him bragging about it in the most audacious way possible.
there not only one novel out there. you guys so funny. Actually I've made lots korean and chinese novels so have fun to find it. And yeah I still using patreon. and Patreon still not shut down my site so try report it more. Welcome all detectives and hunters. Love from tskga :)
so, what other website can he use?
I mean, he is doesn't seems to be using patreon I think...
does it matter?
we will find it, and we will end it. as many times as need be
Legit.
I just wanna make sure he cant continue his scam.
Bingo, if he doesn't put it on a site easy to find, then he won't be getting any new sheep
anyone searching for the novel will find this place first, if they don't then WE will find his site first. we don't have to run, it's a game only he can lose
It's just occurred to me that the harder it is for us to find it, the harder it should theoretically be for any would-be scam victims to find it as well.
thanks for commenting you utter waste of human garbage so we can see even more of you deprived vanity. its easy to play hide and seek and every annoyance and dropped supporter from you because they find out the truth will have made the effort worth it.
you guys doing pointless thing. there plenty of fish in the sea. have fun playing hide and seek. my new site running good. Love from tskga :)
... I c.
So, he intend to conduct fraud with other wn/ln.
Zzz...
You're only 'good' at two thing : Stealing & Running away.
So I'm not sure you should be proud of this...
oh course he should be proud.
It's basically the only money he will ever earn in life
your a piece of shit and i can only hope that a black hat fucks up your new site
He needs to go down somehow..
just keep reporting his page he needs to be wiped off the face of the earth
whats his new name so we can spam report it
Here is a new one: BetterTogether
He creating Greedy
No idea. I am rofl literally when i saw the page
Seriously? It's called Greedy?
I don't think he's smart enough to be self-aware, so is this really a bad translation coincidence?
