Official HorribleSubs closure thread

I'm seeing a lot of disinformation, so here's the deal for you newfags who make up 90% of this board.

1. It was Crunchyroll who killed fansubs. Crunchyroll started as a pirate site with a paywall and all of their episodes were taken from fansub groups. CR made a fuckton of money before going legit.
When CR went legit, they started hiring the best people from the fansub scene.
2. Fansubs were shit and the drama was pathetic. Anyone claiming otherwise is a newfag who is desperately trying to fit in.
3. HorribleSubs was initially made to annoy CR because of CR's past. Anyone who hates HorribleSubs is an imbecile.
4. The actual owners of HS stopped managing HS many years ago. The retard "Dao" took over and he has tried to milk as much attention as possible from HS (why do you think he's shilling his Discord server HMMMM?).

>In the meanwhile, we have plans to keep our Discord up

Fuck this attention whore. Could at least hand over the ripping method to somebody instead of shutting it down for no reason.

HS operations are a bunch of scripts and the occasional maintenance. There's no actual work except for "maintaining" discord. So this is all bullshit.

I wonder who could be behind HS shutting down.

Daiz strikes again.

>mods deleting threads
Good.

...

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

m8, the mods just deleted the other threads.
Who fucking cares about newfags, they'll either learn or fuck off

>wanted to download some shit from IRC
>never did and now is too late
Well shit.

so what now? Erai Raws are selective with their releases and Commie basically died. Am I stuck with watching Pokemon now?

>you can't discuss the state of anime distribution on Zig Forums
sad

Gook-loving trannies ruin everything once more.

You guys have been shitting on it for years but streaming pirate sites might be the go-to option for finding shows when there's no seeds on a torrent.

OP is a fucking idiot. HS dying is a good thing.

>2. Fansubs were shit and the drama was pathetic. Anyone claiming otherwise is a newfag who is desperately trying to fit in.
More like fansubs had higher highs and way lower lows. You needed some basic knowledge of the scene to pick the right releases. Funi, CR, etc. is mostly acceptable but never great. Also the "drama" was fucking nothing. Scanlation is the true turboautism full of literal psychopaths.

Ok who is getting a CR subscription and copying the subs by hand?

any evidence that that's actually been true, ever?

Where do you think streaming pirate sites get their shit from?

Something something bot caught the coof yadda yadda et cetera.

/spoiler Head tranny just doesn't want to pay the hosting costs and he's getting enough attention at discord anyway.

How much would it cost to run a service similar to HS?
Aka storage and required bandwidth.

the mods don't give a shit about Zig Forums, they have some shonentranny as their head mod for the board

not long ago they were removing SW threads

these kinds of threads attract retarded newfags who just want to baitpost because "MUH HAPPENING", see

>Scanlation is the true turboautism full of literal psychopaths.
That's because there's no real alternative. Imagine anime was like that, all the time.

Since this is going to be the fast thread, can someone tell me what happened to samachan?

>Aka storage
Absolutely fucking none because you're storing fucking magnet links.
Bandwith? I don't know, enough to not crash whenever new episode of popular shit is out.

>AB membership
>Nico subscription
>Erai/raws until replacement groups inevitably pop up
Imagine being dependent on cartel rips at this point.

There is now though. I've noticed SHUHEISHA has a lot of popular series for free now. It's too bad manga is way bigger than anime so we'll never be free of scanlation group autism.

or you can just become a rawchad

bypass schizo drama and politically motivated western localizators! all it takes is about 10 000 hours of your free time

If you stick to torrent only releases you could get away with minimal storage. You'll need a decent amount of bandwidth to do the initial seeding of every episode.
