You people have no spines. His poor management skills and selfish pity party to avoid giving over the site is the marked death of the entire system. Don't take this rolling over, let him know what a mistake it is.

b-but his vacation time tho

Thanks for your hard work over the years. Sad to see Batoto go.

[Reanamet]

It's a shame, but I can't fault you, only salute for all the work already done.

thanks for all your hard work

As one could easily understand i was not an active member of the community but i used the site almost hourly every single day.

Easy to say that this was not a good news to read but nonetheless i can see your point of view and understand how this was the best decision you could take for your well being.

The only thing i can do is give you the most sincere and heartfelt thanks for building this platform and the time you spent on making it work and last but not the least hope for the best for your situation and whatever are your future plans.

First and probably last post as well. Thank you for your work. I'll be sad to see this place go since it's the only site I've used in years to read manga,and that tracker helped me keep up with any new chapters I may have missed while without internet. I don't think I remember there being any sites that were nearly as good as this one. If it's not too much of a bother, may I ask for some recommendations for a new site to check?

I'm going to miss this site. <3

From the point of view of a reader this is obviously horrible. But as a person, I'm sorry you've had to go through so much simply to keep this place up and running.

 

I hope there'll be another site that'll take batoto's place. There are tons of obscure gems I'd've never have heard of--much less read--without this place, and it's obviously a huge hit to the manga community but your life is your life, please take care of yourself.

THE TIME FOR INTERNAL SCREAMING HAS PASSED

 

Oh god, this site has been a huge part of my life practically since day 1, to the point where I've refused outright to touch other sites. I've no idea what to do about manga from this point on, this site's been too good.

[Kuroiikawa]

Sad to see it go but understandable. Thank you for your service.

[Van1289]

I am here for a very long time now, and this site has accompained me in every moment of the latest years of my life. I love it very deeply and I will miss it very very much. Nonethless it is so right for you to take this decision and live your life the way you really want, and I truly respect your decision. Gosh, this is my very first post (I'm timid sorry) and I didn't think it will came out so long and emotional.

So I will be short: Thank you for everything and good luck with your next adventure!

Goodbye Batoto founder <3

[ZeroCerberus]

Well this news is disheartening but I understand and wish to thank you for all your hard work, I really will miss this site.

[Xagnam]

Thank you so much for the work and dedication you put into this site, Grumpy. I appreciate the work you and many others have put into making this site a central hub for scanlation works across the web. Batoto shall be sorely missed, and I wish you and the rest of the team the best in future endeavors.

Wouldn't it be possible to simply give the reign of the site and admin right to someone else instead of shutting it down completely?
