THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK AND EVERYTHING!!! This has been my favorite site for reading manga. I'm sad to see it go, but I'm glad you finally get some rest.

 

Wish you the best in your future endeavors~!

Im suddenly really curious on what kind of storage bato needs to run like it does...?

[margaretman2]

Thanks for everything. Good luck, take care, press forward and don't look back.

Godspeed, Grumpy.

Thank you for all the work, both before Batoto and after it's conception.

 

It was one hell of a ride.

Of course, I also thank MHH and Trebor as they, too, have worked at keeping this site running, as well as, all our Moderators.

Without them, none of this would have lasted that long.

I really was only here about half the time, for the foundation period of Batoto. I think seyrine and the current mod team deserves more credit than I do. Mhh too.

 

But I love credit. I shall take it. All of it.

[Iantegee]

I won't lie, I'm devastated batoto is closing down, but all for all the work you've done, the sheer uniqueness of batoto as a site with its high quality pages and especially its follow list, thank you.

Sad to see it go. See you, space cowboy!

[HeyDoge]

Batoto's been a constant of my life for almost 5 years, so it'll be a chapter of my (and everybody's) life that will be closed. I really hope to find something that stand up to it's level of quality.

 

Thank you all for everything, and godspeed.

[Atomsk3rd]

Sad to see you go but completely understandable. Will miss the site. Thanks for all your hard work.

[DanYHKim]

I just got here!

Oh, well. It was really nice, and I cannot imagine how much work had to be done to manage this site.

I am very grateful for Batoto being here, and showing me this generous community of scanlators.

[the_hiroman]

I sincerely thank you for bringing this site up and keeping it running.

 

Thank you for giving us a quality site where we could read this art called manga that could light our days.

 

I wish you the best!

Honestly, if there is only one thing that is really important, it's the list of all scanlation groups on this site. If Grumpy (anyone), could export all known scanlation groups + data (e.g., website link, other things?), it'd be great.

The idea is take this dataframe, check each link to see if the page still exists (note, this is of particular issue for old sites where, say, they uploaded to RapidShare, MegaUpload, etc.)

Once the sites that are "dead" are found, take the associated names of the scanlation groups and use manga-update (or here if it's included on the scanlation group page), to get all the associated series. These can then be downloaded from here or elsewhere in their original quality.

tl;dr take (name, websiteURL, list('manga1', 'manga2',..)) of each group (rows of the dataframe). Check which are dead, back up the mangas for those.

[Adardoniel]

This makes me regret not joining earlier, well I'll be sure too binge on all the manga I can I the next week and a half

[TAmNi_edbin]

Well... I've been on this site since before registering here on batoto. Seeing most of scanlators recommended this site and because of that, I could help them a little just going here... Man, it's been like 6 years or more than that I have been here. Now I don't know where I will find a site that could helped the scanlators. Anyways, thanks for everything! Only I do hope that someone,who is reliable,will maintain this site.

[omoiaoi]

There is no such thing as an end, only a new beginning.

[Jigoku Kamikaze]

Good luck and godspeed! Thank you for everything 'till now.

 

I think this qualifies as "The end of an Era".
