Do you follow the same line of thinking about giving people what they want when it comes to piracy? Would you be prepared to defend people going to "alternative" outlets (e.g. torrents/IRC bots/direct download sites/unlicensed streaming sites etc) to get hold of all of their anime and manga? If not, why the double standard?
I'm not explaining myself correctly or I'm being misunderstood here.
I'm not defending Tokyo Toys, I'm defending Neo. To what extent is the carrier of advertisement to blame for the trading policies of an announcer? Shouldn't the complaints be directed to a Trading Association or a Consumer Rights group? Complaining to Neo or complaining to Expo seems absolutely vain to me. It won't change a thing.

And before I go to the next part of my post, I'd like to say I've put my AUKN Admin hat on and that I have Personal Friends and even Staff who works or collaborate to BOTH Neo and MyM, but regardless of this AUKN is in no way affiliated or influenced by any of these publications - we are of course linked to the anime, manga and cosplay industry, but OUR COMMITMENT AND LOYALTY LIES PRIMARILY ON THE FAN COMMUNITY.

You're welcome here if you are a true anime fan or a MyM representative, you're not welcome here if you are a MyM representative trying to pass as a true anime fan. Sorry for being blunt, but you questioned my morals first =)
This shows that you only posted once in a non-MyM topic. Makes me suspicious.

None of this have been proved yet, and what I link over there is only SPECULATIONS at this point. And I hear good things and bad things about both Neo and MyM, but with AUKN and MY PERSONAL commitment to the community, none of this drama on the "Anime Magazine Wars" will be reported to fans, unless we have proper confirmation on the fact.
As a fan of anime I find inside stories on companies or organisations tactless on the internet, as its the preferred tool of trolls and it only creates misunderstandings.
