On-line manga reading section

[suhi]

Is it possible to have a manga reading feature, so we can read manga on-line without downloading?
I thought it would be neat
Sorry, if this question was already asked, I didn't find any.

I don't think it would be sth easy to do, since most manga here aren't done by aarin and we might need to get permission and if not that, it would be greatly straining for the server... unless you mean having the on-line feature on the website and not the forum... still the server thing but maybe easier....

It would be cool, but I don't think the server could handle it. I just think it would be too much of an hassle. There are many online manga-sites up already, so it's not something that is needed anyway~
Besides, most scanlation-groups have rules on where and how their scans can be shared, and by who. This would need checking with the groups as well methinks.

I think is a very troublesome feature. It requires a lot of maintenance and consumes a lot of server resources (not mentioning that requires a forum only dedicated to this to solve problems) plus all the mess involving the scanlators and permissions to post the mangas. There are so many sites dedicated to this, I don't think we need another one and I wouldn't like to see Aarinfantasy involved in this kind of site, Aarinfantasy is a great forum.

That's a good idea! But members would need to be donating more for bandwidth space, etc. D:

I'd like to hear mod team's opinion on this

1. We use less than HALF our bandwidth every month, so it's not a problem.
2. However, we don't put media on our server for download/viewing for legal reasons. If we do, it's only a clip or a few preview pages.

Actually, a few preview pages sounds very nice. Sometimes you download something just to send it to recycle.
