This would nuke a huge chunk of novels that are inspired by Chinese slop, but are not actually translations... now I personally would not mind that too much, but it would hardly be fair or justified.

Scribble Hub, home of original Western novels. Publish original Chinese/Japanese/Korean slop at your own risk.

Well, a story that plays in China will have Chinese names, etc.
But I understand what you are trying to say. Still, I don't believe it's based on names; that was just an idea I threw out there.
What I do believe is that someone is mass reporting, though. That can easily happen.

I too believe the translator cabal are mass reporting the original stories. "I suffered, so you must too."
This is no longer a translator vs translator violence. This is a translator vs the site violence.
The home of original stories in English, officially. So even original Asian slop is still allowed.

Is there no moderation function to mark a story as original? This way when a mass report happened again to an already proven original English Asian slop, the delisting bots will ignore them.
@Louhi is a sage with legendary patience. I am a foundationless mortal. If this happened to my story more than once, I will just leave.
I assume such function was never implemented, because translations were never meant to be there and it was not seen as potential issue until now. It would be great if there was at least a hidden tag only for the admins/backend to see if a novel was previously proven to be original.

That shouldn't work... unless Tony stopped caring about evidence and built a bot to handle it for him... which would be bad. Like super bad. Extremely bad, even. Site ending bad ;_;
Something is going on for sure, since there are now numerous threads from people who had their novel nuked, but swear it was not translation - including someone like @Louhi who have previously proven as much. They all seem to be either Chinese setting or fanfics too.

Revenge from behind the Great Wall™ for purging their translated slop?
And this is also another reason for me saying, for a long time already, that we need more main site mods. Tony can't handle it alone, and if there are bots handling reports now, they aren't helping at all.

Reported both (with evidence links I can't show here), are CN NTR translators lmao.

I suspect that Ace Striker's earthside name being Morgan Zhu is why The Wonders of Mundus: Book II: Reborn on the Shores of Awakening got caught up in the spate of false positives for translation from CN.
To be clear, this is a wholly original English story that I wrote and have been revising for publication.
I have emailed Tony about reinstating it.
Stop using Lying Loser Machines as a shortcut, or this will keep happening.

Lying loser machines that discriminate against anything Chinese. This keep happening more often than Korean and Japanese.

It's more than related.
SH was created specifically because people on NU didn't want originals there.
Kinda funny, no? Ironic, even.
