Expect heavy delays on most projects.
Earlier today TheWGP(Rizon IrCop) decided to delete most of the content of the AonE FTP in retaliation after we decided to deop him from #Animeone as he is no longer AonE staff.
You can expect delays on most of our projects, specially Naruto, since its entire folder on the ftp was wiped clean.
Needless to say, months of hard work have gone down the drain because of someone’s immaturity. We’re still waiting to see what actions Rizon management will take on this matter.
*UPDATE*
TheWGP has been fired/banned from Rizon by the Rizon management. We’re satisfied with this outcome and consider this issue closed.
We’d like to thank the Rizon management for their swift and appropriate action in this matter.
Now that that’s out of the way, we are now working on getting the projects back up to speed somehow.







Shit, kill this fucking bastard… NARUTO NOOO
For what does the USA have some thousand nukes?
let the president test em on this guys house
I’ve been with you since the beginning and you guys always bounce back.
Keep up the good work.
Backups, motherfuckers! Do you make ‘em?
Being fired/banned is no light action, so the perpetrator(s) got what they deserved. I’m glad that AonE sought the appropriate action and that it was justly granted. Also – I’m happy that AonE is keeping their chin up.
What a bitter bastard, I’m glad he got banned.. I wish AonE luck on getting back on their feet.
let’s report him to the fbi for child porn the jerk. well aone i know you guys will bouce back and thank you for the great releases
Nope. It’s hard to make regular backups of 80-100 gigs of data when you have no big, fast space anywhere, and no budget to speak of.
Damn that sucks, and what Complich8 said is true. These are fan-subs, AonE doesn’t have exactly tons of cash. Make free sub-titled anime doesn’t make you rich
IRC mixed with anime fansub groups = DRAMA!
Soap operas are funneh! Like, why else do ppl watch them…
well this certainly sucks:sad:, becuase of one really self abosrbed ass thousands will suffer. Anyone got a home address? I have a present to send him:wink:.
Thanks for all your hard work guys, it is really appreciated. Hope that you AonE will soon stand firmly on its feet again. Thank you once again, and keep on keeping on.
Man, that really sucks big time. People doing their best for free and some bonehead destroyes the efforts. Jerks like that would deserve to have their property burn to the ground to learn how it feels.
Seems like TheWGP only lost his ircop position. He’s still on Rizon.
I’d be very careful about posting what could be called ‘threats’ here, folks. What that person did was immature to say the least, but the data can be replaced. It will take time. However, posting something that could be taken as a threat, in even the slightest way, could shut down some websites. Please be very careful, for all our sake.
Have you tried using some kind of application to try and restore the lost data?
why was he not a AonE staff anymore ?
Is there anything that users can do to help alleviate the situation or is it more or less under control by now? I don’t know all the stuff that you kept, but I’d be willing to create some DVD backups of a bunch of Naruto episodes and whatever else I have on-hand that you all subbed and mail it off if it’d help at all.
anyway ,since anbu’s split , we forgot about naruto ^^
it don t change anything 4 us
Rather vexing, but we have faith in you guys. Just work hard and we’ll wait as long as it takes. Dattebayo has nothin’ on you!:smile:
that seriously sucks. And AONE is the onli Naruto fansubs i get *sigh* luckly i’ve got other anime to tide me over till aone get back into the swing of things. Best of luck aone.
All the best guys with this situation, it’s sad when people are as immature as this. I’ve lost important data a few times now and I usually find that you do it quicker and better the second time round. I hope this incident doesn’t screw you round too much and/or make you lose heart in some way. Remember, we’re behind you so if there’s anything we can do to help, even if it’s small, let us know.
To those who wanted to kick TheWGP’s arse, I can understand your feelings however isn’t that kind of attitude just putting yourselves on the same level as him/her?
hi naruto is cool es ist so gut wie alles cool von japan das wolte ich nur sagen:cool:
die manga von nruto oder inujasha sind der volle hammerrrrrrrrrr
tschüss bis bald
I know your probably not looking for individual files, more of the unsubbed raws and your own texts and such. But if it is of any help i have 86 of the naruto episodes released by aone on my HD. If you guys over here would want me to send them over i have a 1mb/s upload so i will take a year to send but if you guys over at aone cant get them anywhere else i can send them over.
Nobody but fansub crew has any of the stuff we’d need to recover, I can guarantee you.
We don’t need your old Naruto archives, but thanks for the offer.
Thought as much. That is about the only thing i could offer, that and some money which i dont have
Anyway, i wish you guys a good recovery.
a lesson learned.
lol
I would like to suggest Aone temporarily skip subbing the current Naruto’s filler. This way could reduce your burden and tense. Just focus to the future release especially when the fillers reach the end. If you need donation, i don’t know how to make it.
i actually somewhat agree with this capoi fellow. Naruto has blown the past YEAR and getting prepped to sub and release the manga-based storyline is infinitely more important to most people following AonE than getting releases of fillers (at least to the ones with some sense…)
blows about the other projects too. best of luck in getting back on task
I’ve got something like the first 140ish of Naruto at home, if you guys need it uploaded to somewhere lemme know… but the files will have to be renamed, lol I went through & named them all Naruto – Ep#.avi to make it easier to read through & whatnot.
To get ahold of me… it’s “Me” @ gmail dot com — replace me w/ my poster name.
I was thinking about making a donation, but I’ve got a few questions… I’ll be hanging out in your Rizon channel. ^_^
fortunatly AMG is not affected…:grin:
Who is that guy is he an old admin? Cuz i neva herd of him. I kill the fucking bastard too.:twisted:
I wouldn’t bother subbing the fillers. they suck so bad… I don’t even download them…
i like the fillers idk care if thay have noting to do with the actual show but plleese keep doing them im stuck on ep. 160 *cry* also y did AonE skip from ep. 160 to 173? any way keep up the good work, and if you start to feel tired of ur work just think off all the people out there who love naruto (me as one of them) who will be so heart broken. any way how many episodes are there in total?:grin:
I have an older tape backup drive sitting here doing daily backups of my testbed server, I could probably do a rsync onto my tapes if a) you guys are willing to buy the tapes, and b) if you trust a random fan. I suppose having a backup somewhere is better than no backup though. The tapes are DDS3 12/24 gig tapes, $5 per tape, $60 for a pack of 20 tapes. That’s 12 gigs uncompressed, 24 gigs compressed per tape. Here’s the site I get them from: http://www.digitape.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=D&Category_Code=200025
Contact me at s-y-n-t-h@x-k-o-m-p.c-o-m if you’re interested. My server and connection are on 24/7 anyways because, well, it’s a server.
Oh, obviously, remove anti-spam dashes. And, I’d be willing to mail you guys the filled tapes if you’d want, since you guys would be paying for the tapes (I dunno why you would, maybe if you feel like it’s safer in your possessions?). I guess you could mail them all back to be restored if that ever was the case, or have it restored on someone else’s tape drive that reads DDS3 tapes. Or I’d be willing to have them in my safe-keeping box if you’d trust me. Whatever, all that is negotiable.
if its HD recovery.. there are some comp. services that can “attempt” to recover lost data on HD’s. Another way to do it, is to use a hard drive recovery program. i know this because i have lost a 300 gig HD before =(, but i was able to recover 90-95% of the lost date. the program i used is call Zero Assumption Recovery, here is the stie http://www.z-a-recovery.com/ , here is a warning thou. it does take it sweet ass time, even on a gamin performence computer ( Athlon X2 dual core, 2 gig DDR2 4200 RAM, 2x2MB cache). it took me 3 DAYS!!! workin all day and night to recover it
well, this explains the delays in amg..I think.
anyway, in my experience, karma works, so I’m anticipating some bad times for this little kid. honestly, what half-grown person would throw a tantrum like that and screw us all over..
I’ll tell ya, it’s name is ‘TheWGP’.
wtf does that mean anyway?:roll:
NO! AMG SEASON 2! YOU GUYS ARE THE ONLY ONES DOING IT! NOOOOO
“the world’s gayest person”
For those who doesn’t know yet, the web sites for AnoE and Animeyuki are shut down completely, check the bad news http://www.animeyuki.org
oh my gawd. please it back up quickly. its been more than a week now…. now animeyuki tooo…….. noooooooooooo………….
please at least continue subbing AMG season 2. onegai!!!!!
megami-sama, tatsukete!!!!!!!!!!
I have ondly one question right now and that is if this misshapp has affected ongoing projects gathering of RAW’s.
Meaning will there be afew episodes missing of the series or will you guys be able to take RAW’s from storage and ceep going next month as if it was last month’s??
Bless you AonE for keeping your chin up and continuing to sub…
asa kau mga pogi
Pretty harsh guys damn immature ppl who ruin it for the rest of us
what a pitty, that’s a really asshole and somebody like him should be killed, keep up the good work I really believe in you guys ^^
Although TheWGP is obviously immature (from what we’ve heard about him), it’s also your fault for having someone like that on the staff in the first place. Anyway, e-drama is fucking retarded. Especially when it correlates to fansubbing.
It’s really sad when something like this happens, but why didn’t you baked up the most important files on a couple of hard disk, other than the ftp? O__o
Anyway don’t worry too much about Naruto, it’s still fillers unfortunately… I hope you’ll still sub the Kakashi Gaiden and the part two when they will air, though. ^^
Anyway, I think you should clrearly say if you’re going to continue your projects (and which ones)… I bet no one really cares about the delay (you’re doing this for free, after all
), but we fans care to know if you are still doing them for sure or not.
At any case you’ve my support, you’re on of my fav funsubbing team!
What a retard:roll:
wow this sucks. I was wondering what had happened after about 4 missed AMG episodes. Not really a Naruto fan, but a sucker for AMG. I’ll be waitin for that next release! Hope you guys can get outta the slump and keep on subbing (specially since your the ONLY group subbing AMG currently):neutral:
Well this is just dissapointing with all this talk about he did that, he is this, he chold be that/this, and that chold have been done, this could have been prevented and so on.
What has happened is tragic and fact is that it did happen and if it could have been prevented or forseen it whold have been done.
People will always have crapp happen to em, some will retaliate in impropper or rude ways, some will do nothing, some will try fix it somehow, and most of the time it turns out for the better.
And eaven the most capable people will sometimes follow the old saying that says “fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me” (you let yourselfe be fooled the first time), simply putt it can also mean that if you don’t dare try trust/love someone becose your afraid of getting hurt then you will not be able to trust/love anyone ewer again, something that AMG has taught me.
So one thing i really love abouth fansubbers is their will to do something for others that most people whold think of as impossible to do, and one day i hope to be able to try fansubbing something that i like, so that other people can learn/experiance from what i have and mabe become better people in life.
But first i have to learn the language and well after seeing my first 4 anime’s and learning abouth it’s history i had decided to learn Japanese and why chold i not, i have an better chanse of learning Japanese than my native/neibour language and i whold have an better chanse of earning an living based on Japanese speaking than if i learn an native language (really tragic to be honest but it’s the first desision in my entire life that i have not regreted).
Well what was i trying to say again?
Ma Ma lets just let em be alone abit and have propper time to recower from all of this, they are most likely as uppsett abouth it as we are (if not eaven more so by an factor of x100 becose of what we people say to em), and if we let em do what they do better than us, they might not ondly get back upp to speed, they might eaven get better and faster at it than before.
Hope you guys bounce back, like your subs a hell of alot more than DB
. Sad part is I just found out abotu you guys and ended up liking you. Hope you get naruto back up soon :p
Why did he still have an ftp account? I mean, come on, removing @ on some random irc channel, but letting his read/write ftp access alive?
suprise suprise, i told ya TheWGP was a lamer back in the day…
he was one of the key people holding back the expansion of aone (you know who the rest of you are, and you can suck it)
i think i still have some accounts with full access for the gotwoot http://ftp... but i have no use for that shit =p
anyways have fun hanging on while ya slowly die
If what Smash says is true, then isn’t it time to have a bit of a work-around with everyone… maybe a bit of Spring Cleaning within the group would help this expansion if it ever does happen.
What i would like to know though… surely this FTP wasn’t the only file storage thing… everyone has a back-up, especially big groups like yourselves who have done 1500+ releases… It just doesn’t feel right that one person can delete absolutely everything.
I’ve only read a few comments here but i can certainly say that a little more feedback would be helpful.
Anyway, best of luck with restoring what you can and i hope you rise from the ashes and become a brilliant fansub group… you could go all the way to 2000 releases i bet
P.S. Wow reading what i’ve said i don’t mean to be forceful, because i know absolutely nothing about the situation within your group and it’s none of my business, anyway goodluck with everything again, and with regard to Smash (who is the reason i replyed to this), again, i’m not telling you what to do, but you seem to know so much about the goings-on inside AonE, why don’t you go and lend your services to help them and not say crap like saying they’re going to ‘die’…
lol, they dug their own grave, the dieing comment wasnt about shit getting deleted, its just that look at where aone is now, and where it was approx 1.5-2 years ago, theres 1/4 the amount of support there use to be… slowly dieing, especialy because of management, But now that them fools have been gone for awhile, maybe something can be restored (skeptical).
every now and then, someone from the past of aone’s prime lurks in and tries to help out, but as all ex-staff, they are more than likely just kicked to the curb and stripped… (i can understand the resentment of thewgp, but i am not agreeing with that what he did was right)
there are still some lamers uptop though, and the way its heading… thats what i meant by “slowly die”… trying to save something that cannot be saved (IMHO). Anyways i wouldnt want their services, and the way i left off about a year ago, they wouldnt want my help either
I tell ya, this is the fundamental problem with shared credentials.
One person leaves, you’ve got to change 15 passwords, and tell 30 other people those 15 new passwords. Nobody wants to do that, so it doesn’t happen, and bad things result.
As for the inevitibility of things … I’m going to disagree. It’s not inevitable, it’s just that it’s particularly tricky to avoid it.
forget naruto
what about ah! my goddess 2?
Well by the time you see this there is afew new Eps of AMG 2.
YAY AMG and lots of it (was well worht the long wait)!
Forget about naruto, i heard that Dattebayo Is doing the naruto subs. their site is http://yhbt.mine.nu/ , but who really cares.
i can’t wait for the next Ah! My Goddess to come out.
Say what you will about Dattebayo but they’re about 100 times more efficient than most of the other popular fansubbing groups on the net right now. The reason things happen with groups like this is, espacially with aone, is disorginisations and and group confussion. There’s a thousand ways to keep things running more efficiently and to keep things organised but you can’t even do that if you can’t keep a group working together. A chain is only as stong as it’s weakest link and there’s always alot of people not willing to pull their weights. Too many chiefs and not enough indians so to speak. Motivating a group like this and actually gettign things done efficiently isn’t easy and it’s even harder when half your staff spends their time not doing what they’re supposed to and stabbing each other in the backs every chance they get. Just a common disease amongs groups like this. My advice is a little staff house cleaning and looking for more efficient and secure means of backup and storage. It’s not impopssible. Ja-ne…
lol. but complaining about this won’t help in anything man. Listen, maybe they aren’t perfect, and even they aren’t good, but they are doing this. Taking their free time to do something for anime fans, I really appricate it in that way.
It doesn’t matter what had happend. I hope that they will still keep working, and enjoying this hard work. I personaly don’t care about naruto at all, There are movies to the 183 with subs on internet, so for me they could stop working on naruto, and get more powers to the Ah! My goddess – heh I really like it, this man was really starnge, if he deleted it just for revange it means he is just idiot, nothing more, nothing less.
heh good job, keep on working on “Ah! My goddess!” ^^ beat the problems and stand up, this is what I wish for you.
Gahhhh Kill them! AonE I’ve been a huge fan ofyou since I gotmy first few subs of Naruto. So I know you guys will come back your too kickass to let it go.
Ah My Goddess season 2 episode 7—-Your mine one day you can run all you want I’m gonna watch you!
I really like the fact people are giving AonE pointers, Telling them another Group is better because, and telling them to get going on some anime they want.
This is exactly the reason most of the AonE staff don’t come here and listen to your PMs and E-mails. It’s just funny to think that you all think your helping
Belldandy for President!!!
Is Naruto really stalled?
In AniDB it says that AonE has stalled Naruto. There’s no sign of that either here nor on the blog at http://aonefans.blogspot.com/ . If they really have stalled it, I wonder if it’s till the fillers end… They are currently the only quality group doing Naruto so it would be bad if they stopped subbing it completely.
I don’t care so much about who subs the fillers, but if/when they finally end, I hope AonE will be subbing the series again.
Hopefully you’ve now recovered from the problems you had, at least AMG project seems to be in pretty good speed.
Good luck!
that’s sad to hear what happened, but i’m glad everything’s under control now
pls keep it up, AONE, me and many of my friends r cheering u guys on!
Pls take ur time… i understand the heck u guys must have been thru… Kyou Kara Maou can wait, we dont mind
I hope everything turns back to normal soon! Cheering u guys on! ~AzureBluePhoenix~
Helping? Tch. I could care less but maybe if they did listen to a fan once in a while it would help? I don’t know if oyu realise this but most fansub groups do these projects in their “free” time but you know what, they’re something to be said for dedication and commitment even if it’s “voluntary” service. Save your schoozing for the IRC channel.
@Darth Arrow:
“stalled” is a designator used by several places to indicate that no substantial new progress has been made in a series, as far as public releases go. In other words, if there’s no release of Naruto for a month, or if there’s only one release every month or two, the project is considered stalled. This is not a designator that fansub groups usually apply to themselves, because they can see their own progress. Typically, a project that is “stalled” is actually in progress, just taking a very long time at some stage, often at several stages.
@fallen_angel: unfortunately, in this particular case, no amount of fan advice or intervention would have overcome the inherent flaws in the system in place. In this case, the problems were caused by a trusted user and poor security practices on the part of the project maintainers (who actually manage the ftp accounts). Basically how things are set up, there’s a shared ftp login for every project, and that shared login gets passed around to the project members. Usually, project staff are trustworthy and project members have local copies of files. However, that’s often not the case on very slow-moving projects, which may have a dozen or more episodes in various states of completion.
All of this isn’t normally a big problem, because when a staff member leaves you can just change the project account passwords and hand them back out to the people who’re still on the project. However, because of TheWGP’s “fuzzy departure” — that is, leaving without making a big scene about it immediately, nobody thought it was necessary to do this.
If everyone were aware of how things should normally go, they would have changed the passwords before doing things that generally make people with the old passwords upset… sort of like changing the locks when you break up with a former lover who had a key to your apartment. When you don’t take these precautions, they sort of bite you in the ass.
@everyone
Regardless, the group is mostly functioning again, as demonstrated by various releases. It’s still a slow group with declining public interest, a fading reputation and apparent productivity problems… so of course it takes time to bounce back. I’m sure the staff appreciate your support, but this comment thread is really going nowhere… which is to be expected, considering it’s more than a month old. So I’m going to turn off comments on this post now… hopefully you can find something else to do, like download the latest releases
