I just finished up reading the 10th volume of Bleach that Viz has released, next volume isn't out until Feb.
I've seen topics on the board with people talking about chapters 180+
So I'm just curious, have they been reading a fan-translated Manga?
If so, would it be possible to get a link? Or would that be a no-no >.>?

Yes. There are several places online where good scanlations are available, one in particular that is well-noted JUST because of its Bleach scanlations.

I'm guessing a no-no, at least on the boards, since Bleach is licensed. But I'll leave that up to the mods.

The answer is multi-fold:
Initially, no link to any series, regardless of its status, is allowed on site. This can become a legal complication we don't need. We do not control private messages, however, and do not think it prudent to demand that no one ever ask for links to be sent to them. Therefore we do not condemn this thread.
Secondly, discussions of series not available in the United States are allowed. You knew that.
Thirdly, we do urge that everyone take a serious moral inventory before reading scanlations. The people that I know in the Bleach discussion thread are not saving the manga permanently and are buying it from Viz anyway, so they've come to one conclusion (I'm obviously among them, given that I started the thread in question). However, we respect those who feel the other way, and only ask that they not attack those who have made a different decision.
