Quote from: kitsunebi on Feb 24, 2025, 02:35 PMVGHF IS just taking scans without asking the scanners.  They haven't got most of their stuff online yet, but they've already got at least one of my scans there, browsable from cover to cover.  I was never asked, nor am I credited in any way.  Granted, they likely pulled it from Retromags, which apparently the VGHF feels they have free reign to plunder as they see fit.  They were possibly given permission to do so by Phillyman, although getting permission from someone who played no part in creating the scan is irrelevant in my opinion, and Phillyman certainly never asked any of us if we want our scans hosted there.
It will be very interesting to see if they end up eventually taking from exclusive Old Game Mags scans. Let's hope it's just kept to Retro Mags since that's what the website and video specified.
