How do you fuck up this bad?
People pay for this. They pay just to wait weeks after the apparent "release date" has long passed in order to download their purchase despite it already being available in weekly chunks in an online only format. How in shit's name does it take over a month from the time it was first made available on the reader for a chapter to be made ready for actual download?
When a chapter is ready for the reader it should be ready as part of the final complete download as well. What? Do you sit on an incomplete for weeks until all chapters are complete release before you start preparing them for direct download? Why? The fuck sense does that make? It's as if you're pulling these dates out of your ass. It's no wonder you're rarely punctual.
This company has zero professionalism. No standards whatsoever. You can't even keep up with and make good on the dates and times you yourselves set. You fools are constantly spouting bullshit and empty promises. Stop. You clearly can't manage to run an actual business. You'll always have the small group of sycophants that will eat up whatever you serve like a starving child, but for fuck sakes get it together. This isn't a fan site anymore. Have some pride. Respect your customers.
When this site was just a place people could upload and share free Hentai Manga and Doujinshi it didn't matter if releases weren't perfect or on time. We weren't asked to actually pay for anything. It's only through the fanbase you built through offering free shit that you're even in this position to begin with. Stop taking advantage of them and do what's expected of a company by releasing your products on time. Don't apologize. Don't make excuses. Just do it.
I'm really wondering how many people are actually upset about this. I totally understand what you're saying, that customers shouldn't have to put up with nonsense. And I agree, I can't even imagine any reasonable excuse for being so late. But if you come from the real world you should understand that shit happens. Delays are a part of everyday life. I don't really think we're in a position to judge any particular staff member. We can argue that the company as a whole is not operating very well. But I don't think we're at the point where we need to grab pitchforks yet. Has it really gotten that bad already? I'm not ready to judge Fakku until some really shady shit happens and people are actually getting screwed.
