I beg that the community understands this difficult decision I've made. I've simply run out of will and I feel this is the best choice for me. How else would I have always responded to issues immediately? False alarm, while irritating, is one of the best things to see when I'm interrupted from my sleep. I'd wake up in the middle of the sleep to take care of it. I have alarms that go off when the site goes down. Sound sleeping is also a thing of the past. Anytime someone says, let's go somewhere, I could only say no. The fact that I'm unable to take a vacation have often been a point of argument with others in my life. I obviously don't do something every single day, but just making myself available is taxing on my life. If the site goes down, I had to be there, on my computer, ready to take action. Over the last 7 years, I haven't had a single day when I could just freely take a day off. Whether it be a DDoS attack, scraper bots gone haywire, servers/hosting company being annoying, ad company being annoying, there's just so many stuff that I constantly have to deal with. It's just expected part of running the site. It's a big site with huge number of page views. It's not just the bots that adds to the technical issues. And I don't want to make more serious change to this site that'll inconvenience the readers even further. They currently make up roughly 35% of the traffic which are much more troublesome than real users. While that helped a ton at that time, it always creeps back and we're almost back to square one at this point when I look at the statistics. I've made some serious and controversial changes to counter that like adding membership requirements. Our bot visitors are always growing as we're the only source that still gives true quality. I'm tired and I just can't do this anymore.īatoto is proving to be ever more time consuming to maintain despite the fact that we have fewer real visitors. But it is at a point where I need to move on with my life. At 7 years, I suppose it's not even a baby anymore. I don't regret taking on this hobby called Batoto and I cherish the role that I've played as well as the countless hours everyone else here has put in as well as the great community that we've built. I started Batoto along with the crew from The Company back in January of 2011 and it's been a very meaningful part of my life. And I've finally made my mind to put it into action. This is not a sudden decision for me or something I make lightly, it has been on my mind for a couple years now. I just don't have the will to run this site anymore.

To make the life of mobile users easier, I'm also posting the some of the links from the page below:Īll Parts in ZIP archives (in colour and B/W) JoJo's Colored Adventure Not every part is complete as JoJo's Colored Adventure is still uploading everything, but I'm sure you'll be able to read everything in a couple of weeks. Now, lets focus on the future, shall we? I have updated the Manga section of our subreddit wiki with links to MangaDex. We are thankful for the many years it ran and we will never forget it. It's the end of an age, the reader in bato.to no longer works and soon the whole website will be down.
