>We USUALLY charge 1.50 $ per page translated and edited. The price may be lowered depending on the amount of text there is on a particular page and how much editing is required on it.

As for the name, I always thought it's because U MAD = Meiling And DamageDesu. Seeing how Meiling always provides newly translated doujins for the rest of the people on /jp/, you shouldn't really complain.

But I guess idiots will always exist.

ZUN, although I agree on that, most translators only like to translate certain things. A Typemoon fanboy translator would be charmed to translate TM's new game, but would scowl with disgust at having to translate a nukige with a fetish he doesn't like. He would demand compensation.

And that is why people pay for their goddamn translations.

I can edit not translate. If I could find a translator to go into business with of course I would start charging.

Considering it's a two person group, they both make $.75 a page (probably less than half that because a lot of pages in H-doujins have little dialog during the sex scenes).

Besides, $1.50 (supposedly) per page is extremely cheap.
