今年的7月真可谓是多事之秋。今早,全球知名的漫画(本子)资源网站Ex绅士(exhentai)又传出了即将删除loli tag内容并在6个月内关站的消息,一时间在各大圈子里引发了强烈反响。
Ex作为一家影响力极大的网站(应该没什么问题),与之相关的传言也是瞬间爆发。谣言、辟谣以及指责辟谣才是谣言的言论在网上撕的乱七八糟。
其中包括声称此次事件是因为受到荷兰法案的影响、辟谣称推行法案的是比利时,荷兰是站长误会了、站长的退休致辞、辟谣称站长的致辞是假的等等。
而在删tag和关站方面也是搞得云里雾里,从几小时内删除loli tag内容,6个月内关站到12小时内关闭里站ex,6个月内关闭表站eh等等。
但总的来说,目前基本看不到什么准确消息,也有人质疑至今公布的大部分消息基本都来自Maximum Joe一人(此人似乎是该站管理员之一)。
不过相对比较可靠的,大概就是官方Wiki上给出的“建议备份”的公告了:“Please note that the site is ending its development. Please backup all desired content,thank you.”“请注意,网站的进展正在终止。请备份所有你想留下的内容,谢谢”
不得不说的是,未成年人相关的H内容无论在哪个国家都非常敏感,此次删除loli tag内容的事件也被视为是迟早的事。同时Ex绅士上的内容除了H问题还经常会涉及版权问题,对于许多作者来说或许也是可喜可贺?
当然,作为一个大型资源网站,Ex绅士上也有许多高质量的正常向资源,同时分类相对明确的大量tag也非常宝贵,此次的关站事件对于大多数网友来说还是非常痛苦的。相关网站上也是哀嚎一片,还有一些网友开始了库存本子分享计划(《流浪Ex绅士》)
那么对于这次Ex绅士关站事件,你怎么看呢?
附录:网上流传的站长致辞(不确定真伪)
原文:
I have been considering retirement from this site for some time due to a persistent tendon injury that makes it impossible to spend any extended time in front of a computer. This is why the last galleries update took over a year to complete, and why there's been no other updates to the rest of the site for almost two years. Still, the site has been operating normally even though I've only been able to put in the bare minimum work to keep it running, mostly thanks to you guys.
Unfortunately, today we received a notice about recent legislative changes in the Netherlands, confirmed by our host, that now makes loli illegal there. While it may have been possible to move the necessary servers to some other country that still allows it (possibly Switzerland), at this time it's probably a game of whack-a-mole, so even if I wanted to attempt it, the aforementioned tendon injury makes it impossible for me to play that game.
Which brings us to the regrettable conclusion. In less than twelve hours, the panda is being put down, and it won't be back. At least temporarily, I will also be turning off new account signups and adding some posting limitations to accounts that haven't previously posted anything.
I'm not really all that interested in running a neutered site that classifies drawings as legal or illegal based on bust size, so while EH itself will continue operating for at least six months and probably out 2020, it is likely that no more development will take place and that I will retire in 6-18 months - especially considering the tendon injury and inevitable rioting that will take place.
Which of course begs the question of whether you guys want to try to get a successor going, or if you just want to leave it to the existing copycat sites. You'd need a new domain and new infrastructure to run it, but I'd obviously hook you up with access to the source code, a redacted copy of the galleries database, as well as the source image files. Let me know, and I'll do a bit of a write-up on what you'd need. Regardless of whether this happens or not, if I do retire, I will try to arrange to have some sort of read-only archive of the site maintained indefinitely.
This might seem somewhat ironic considering the events in Kyoto seven days ago, but I always considered EH to be like a venerable old building in that it could only ever end in one of two ways - either it would get torn down when everyone had moved on the new shiny building across the street, or it would suddenly catch fire and burn down with everyone still inside. Personally, I was really hoping for the former.
简单总结:
>我因为身体原因要退休
>荷兰的服务器肯定是用不了了,可能转到瑞士,但是也只是暂时的,我也没精力继续玩猫捉老鼠的游戏了
>熊猫(exhentai)12小时内会永久关
>Eh还会继续运营六个月
>你们可以开始讨论是要让别人来继续运营e,还是干脆倒掉转向那些山寨站了
>如果有需要的请联系我,我会放出手头资源
考虑到七天前在京都发生的事情,这似乎有点讽刺,但我一直认为eh就像一座古老的建筑,因为它只能以两种方式中的一种结束——要么当每个人都搬到街对面的新的闪亮建筑上时,它就会被拆掉,要么会突然着火烧掉里面的所有东西。就我个人而言,我真的很希望是前者。
