I was already a member in your discord server and the community there is really supportive and all that. I am also aware of the issues where some of your links was leaked outside of discord.

I reviewed some of the stuff that I got from here and most materials that are zip are old "how to books" from a blogspot called fineartvn, cgebooks and more which I think no one would be interested in because of how old and "unaesthetically" the materials look but of course there are also high-quality materials that was shared and thanks to them.

Well maybe I'll just divide them by batch and upload it to mega or google drive. That will do the job of somewhat preserving them .
I don't know how long ago you left the server but I've started sharing new content again.

Since I was away on a trip to Japan for 2 weeks, I didn't have time to add content but I am continuously sharing with the contributing members who support the server.

Initially, we only allowed the sharing of purchased books but I guess many of the recent books shared by the community are books from the internet but unfortunately I have no way to check everything.
I do not vouch for the content of all members, I only vouch for certain members with whom I have made several purchases in the past.

I personally buy all the books I own. I never download any on the net because I support the artists I like. It is possible that while waiting to receive a book, a member lends me one so that I can wait before receiving the book but it is a very rare situation.

When I started on the forum (Yande.re), I shared all the books I bought as I went along, but I surpressed them all as soon as I realized that some people were not respecting the rules and were appropriating the books by making them look like they had bought them to share them on Chinese sites in exchange for points that would allow them to acquire new books. As these were new and purchased books, it was a real opportunity for the swindlers and opportunists who, without buying anything or contributing anything, had a source of books at their disposal through us.

As soon as we realized that, they didn't like it and they were the first to blame us for not sharing anything, but they are the cause of the decline of the forum.

I have created a community with different levels so that deserving members can have a help equivalent to their contribution.
It's a give and take and it's the fairest solution I've found but I don't exclude to change the rules in the future as I've already done by inviting even non contributors to join us.

It is obvious that we will not share anything with those who do not help others and who are only there to download books without contributing.

Although I continue to share some books with everyone, but since the recent leak, I keep the rare, new, old or high value added books for the deserving members who support us throughout the year.
